Answer this question:Betty and Dora started making some cupcakes at the same time. Betty makes 10 cupcakes every hour and Dora makes 8 every hour. If Betty took a two-hour break, what is the difference between the number of cupcakes they made after 5 hours?
Dora made 8 cupcakes per hour for 5 hours for a total of 8 * 5 = 40 cupcakes. Betty took a 2 - hour break so she spent 5 - 2 = 3 hours making cupcakes. Betty made 10 cupcakes per hour for 3 hours for a total of 10 * 3 = 30 cupcakes. The difference between the number of cupcakes they made is 40 - 30 = 10 cupcakes.
The answer is 10.

Answer this question:At a flea market, Hillary sells handmade crafts for 12 dollars per craft. Today, Hillary sells 3 crafts and is given an extra 7 dollars from an appreciative customer. Later on, Hillary deposits 18 dollars from today's profits into her bank account. How many dollars is Hillary left with after making the deposit?
Hillary sells 3 crafts for 12 dollars each, for a total of 3 crafts * $12 / craft = $36. She receives an extra 7 dollars from a customer, increasing the total to $36 + $7 = $43. She then deposits 18 dollars in the bank, leaving her with $43 - $18 = $25.
The answer is 25.

Answer this question:It's Yvette's turn to treat herself and her three best friends to a round of ice cream sundaes. Alicia orders the peanut butter sundae for $7.50. Brant orders the Royal banana split sundae for $10.00. Josh orders the death by chocolate sundae for $8.50 and Yvette orders the cherry jubilee sundae for $9.00. She leaves her waiter a 20% tip. How much will her final bill be?
Yvette spent 7.50 + 10 + 8.5 + 9 = $35.00 on ice cream sundaes. Her bill comes to $35.00 and she leaves a 20% tip for the waiter so that's 35 * .20 = $7.00. The bill was $35.00 and she added a $7.00 tip for a total of 35 + 7 = $42.00.
The answer is 42.

Answer this question:If there are four times as many apples as oranges in a certain fruit basket and the basket has 15 apples, how many fruits would Emiliano have consumed if he eats 2/3 of each fruit's quantity in the basket?
If there are four times as many apples as oranges in a certain fruit basket, with the number of apples being 15, there are 15 * 4 = 60 oranges in the basket. If Emiliano eats 2 / 3 of the oranges in the basket, he would have taken 2 / 3 * 60 = 40 oranges from the basket. With the number of apples in the basket being 15, if Emiliano eats 2 / 3 of them, 2 / 3 * 15 = 10 apples would have been eaten by Emiliano. The total number of fruits eaten by Emiliano will total 10 + 40 = 50.
The answer is 50.
