Question: Eva learns for two semesters in a year. In 2019, she scored ten more marks in maths in the first semester than the second, 15 marks less in arts, and 1/3 marks less in science in the first semester than the second. If she got 80 marks in maths in the second semester, 90 marks in arts, and 90 in science, what's the total number of her marks in all the semesters?
Answer with step-by-step thinking: In the first semester, she scored 80 + 10 = 90 marks in maths. She also scores 90 - 15 = 75 marks in arts in the first semester. She scored 1 / 3 marks less in science in the first semester than the second, which is 1 / 3 * 90 = 30. Her score in science in the first semester is 90 - 30 = 60. The total for the first semester is 90 + 75 + 60 = 225. The total for the second semester is 90 + 90 + 80 = 260. The combined marks for all the semesters in 260 + 225 = 485.
So the answer is 485.


Question: Kim has 12 nail polishes. Heidi has 5 more nail polishes than Kim, and Karen has 4 fewer nail polishes than Kim. How many nail polishes does Karen and Heidi have together?
Answer with step-by-step thinking: Heidi has 12 + 5 = 17 nail polishes. Karen has 12 - 4 = 8 nail polishes. Heidi and Karen have 17 + 8 = 25 nail polishes together.
So the answer is 25.


Question: Stella’s antique shop has 3 dolls, 2 clocks and 5 glasses for sale. She sells the dolls for $5 each. The clocks are priced at $15 each. The glasses are priced at $4 each. If she spent $40 to buy everything and she sells all of her merchandise, how much profit will she make?
Answer with step-by-step thinking:
The dolls will sell for 3 * $5 = $15. The clocks will bring in 2 * $15 = $30. The glasses will sell for 5 * $4 = $20. In total, she will bring in $15 + $30 + $20 = $65. Her total profit will be $65 - $40 = $25.
So the answer is 25.
