[Question]Nancy takes 3 antacids per day when she eats Indian food, 2 antacids per day when she eats Mexican food, and 1 antacid per day otherwise. If Nancy eats Indian three times a week and Mexican twice a week, how many antacids does she take per month?
[Answer]First find the total number of antacids Nancy takes after eating Indian food per week: 3 antacids / day * 3 days / week = 9 antacids / week. Then find the total number of antacids Nancy takes after eating Mexican food per week: 2 antacids / day * 2 days / week = 4 antacids / week. Then find the number of days she doesn't eat Indian food or Mexican food: 7 days / week - 3 days / week - 2 days / week = 2 days / week. Then find the total number of antacids Nancy takes per week: 9 antacids / week + 4 antacids / week + 2 antacids / week = 15 antacids / week. Then multiply her weekly antacid consumption by the number of weeks per month to find her monthly consumption: 15 antacids / week * 4 week / month = 60 antacids / month. The answer is 60.
Q: Unrest leads to 30 days of protest in 21 different cities. In each city, there are 10 arrests per day. The average person spends 4 days in jail before trial and then spends half of a 2-week sentence. How many combined weeks of jail time are there?
A: Each city arrest 30 * 10 = 300 people during the protest. So a total of 300 * 21 = 6300 people were arrested. They spend 14 / 2 = 7 days of their sentence in jail. So they spend a total of 7 + 4 = 11 days in jail. So there was a total of 6300 * 11 = 69300 days in jail. So they spent 69300 / 7 = 9900 weeks in jail. The answer is 9900.
Question: Jonsey is awake for 2/3 of the day and spends 1/2 her time awake playing outside and the rest inside. Her brother, Riley, is awake for 3/4 of the day and spends 1/3 of his day outside and the rest inside. How much time, on average, do they spend inside?
Answer: Jonsey is awake for 16 hours because 24 x (2 / 3) = 16. Jonsey spends 1 / 2 her day inside because 1 - (1 / 2) = 1 / 2. Jonsey spend 8 hours inside because 16 x (1 / 2) = 8. Riley is awake for 18 hours because 24 x (3 / 4) = 18. Riley spends 2 / 3 of his day inside because 1 - (1 / 3) = 2 / 3. Riley spends 12 hours inside because 18 x (2 / 3) = 12. In total they spend 20 hours inside because 8 + 12 = 20. On average, they spend 10 hours inside because 20 / 2 = 10. The answer is 10.
[Question]If Jade earns $1600 per month and spent 75% of it on living expenses, one-fifth on insurance, and saves the rest, how much does she save per month?
[Answer]Jade spends $1600 x 75 / 100 = $1200 for living expenses. She spends $1600 x 1 / 5 = $320 for insurance. She spends a total of $1200 + $320 = $1520 for living expenses and insurance. So, she saves $1600 - $1520 = $80 per month. The answer is 80.
[Question]Latia wants to buy a Samsung TV worth $1700. She works for a delivery service company for a month earning $10 per hour for a 30-hour workweek. How many more hours does she have to work to buy the TV?
[Answer]
In a week, Latia earns 30 * 10 = $300. In a month, she earns 300 * 4 = $1200. If the TV was worth $1700, the total amount she has to work for to buy the TV is 1700 - 1200 = $500. Since she earns $10 per hour, she'll have to work for $500 / $10 = 50 more hours to buy the TV. The answer is 50.
