Q: A passenger train transports passengers between two stations located in two separate cities. On a particular day, the train carried 100 passengers from one station to the other one way, and on the return trip carried 60 passengers. If the train made three more round trips that day, taking the same number of people as the first trip in each trip, calculate the total number of passengers transported between both stations?
A: The total number of people transported in the first trip is 100 one way + 60 on the return trip = 160 people. If the train made three more round trips that day carrying the same number of passengers in each trip as the first, it carried a total of 3 * 160 = 480 in all three round trips. In total, the train carried 160 + 480 = 640 people over all its trips that day. The answer is 640.
Question: Tyson can swim at a speed of 3 miles per hour in a lake and 2.5 mph in an ocean. This season, half his races happened in lakes and half his races happened in the ocean. He had ten total races, each of which was 3 miles long. How much time did he spend in his races?
Answer: He did 5 races in the lake because 10 / 2 = 5. He did 5 races in the ocean because 10 / 2 = 5. He raced 15 miles in the lake because 5 x 3 = 15. His lake races took 6 hours because 15 / 2.5 = 6. He raced 15 miles in the ocean because 5 x 3 = 15. His ocean races took 5 hours because 15 / 3 = 5. He spent 11 hours racing because 5 + 6 = 11. The answer is 11.
Q: Tom's puts 30 miles per day on his bike for the first 183 days of the year. For the rest of the days of the year he goes 35 miles per day. How many miles does he drive for the year?
A:
For the first 183 days he drives 183 * 30 = 5490 miles. There are 365 - 183 = 182 days left in the year. He drives 35 * 182 = 6370 for those days. So in total he drives 5490 + 6370 = 11,860. The answer is 11860.
