[Question]At a shop in Japan, women's T-shirts are sold every 30 minutes for $18, and men's T-shirts are sold every 40 minutes for $15. This shop is open from 10 am until 10 pm. How much does the shop earn selling T-shirts per week?
[Answer]First, the shop is open 12 hours * 60 minutes = 720 minutes per day. So, 720 / 30 = 24 women's T - shirts sold per day. The shop earns 24 * $18 = $432 selling women's T - shirts per day. Similarly, 720 / 40 = 18 men's T - shirts are sold per day. The shop earns 18 * $15 = $270 selling men's T - shirts per day. The shop earns $432 + $270 = $702 per day selling T - shirts. The shop earns $702 * 7 = $4914 per week. The answer is 4914.
Q: Barbara got a great deal on a new chest of drawers, but she has to take a lot of paper out of the drawers to be able to use it. She found 3 bundles of colored paper, 2 bunches of white paper, and 5 heaps of scrap paper. If a bunch holds 4 sheets of paper, a bundle holds 2 sheets of paper, and a heap holds 20 sheets of paper, how many sheets of paper did Barbara remove from the chest of drawers?
A: Of the colored paper, Barbara removed 3 * 2 = 6 sheets of paper. Of the white paper, she removed 2 * 4 = 8 sheets of paper. Of the scrap paper, she removed 5 * 20 = 100 sheets of paper. So in total, Barbara removed 6 + 8 + 100 = 114 sheets of paper. The answer is 114.
Question: Sharon’s vacation rental has a Keurig coffee machine. She will be there for 40 days. She has 3 cups of coffee (3 coffee pods) every morning. Her coffee pods come 30 pods to a box for $8.00. How much will she spend on coffee to last her for the entire vacation?
Answer: She'll be on vacation for 40 days and drinks 3 cups of coffee / pods per day for a total of 40 * 3 = 120 coffee pods. Her coffee pods come 30 in a box and she needs 120 coffee pods so that’s 120 / 30 = 4 boxes. Each box costs $8.00 and she needs 4 boxes so that’s 8 * 4 = $32.00. The answer is 32.
[Question]Nine hundred tickets were sold to a concert. Three-fourths of those who bought the ticket came before the start of the concert. Five-ninths of the remaining came few minutes after the first song. Eighty people arrived during the middle part of the concert while the rest did not go. How many of those who bought the tickets did not go?
[Answer]900 x 3 / 4 = 675 people came before the start of the concert. 900 - 675 = 225 people did not come before the start of the concert. 225 x 5 / 9 = 125 people came few minutes after the first song. So, 125 + 80 = 205 people came to the concert that was not able to be at the start of the concert. Therefore, 225 - 205 = 20 people did not go to the concert. The answer is 20.
Q: Mr. Grey is purchasing gifts for his family. So far he has purchased 3 polo shirts for $26 each; 2 necklaces for $83 each; and 1 computer game for $90. Since Mr. Grey purchased all those using his credit card, he received a $12 rebate. What is the total cost of the gifts after the rebate?
A: Mr. Grey paid $26 / shirt x 3 shirts = $78 on polo shirts. He paid $83 / necklace x 2 necklaces = $166 on necklaces. So, he paid $78 + $166 + $90 = $334 for the gifts. After the rebate, the total cost of the gifts is now $334 - $12 = $322. The answer is 322.
