Q: It is recommended that men should consume no more than 150 calories of added sugar per day. Mark took a soft drink in the afternoon that contained 2500 calories, 5% of which was from added sugar. Then he bought some bars of candy which had 25 calories of added sugar each. If he eventually exceeded the recommended intake of added sugar by 100%, how many bars of candy did he take?
A: He consumed 2500 calories, 5% of which is added sugar to give 2500 * (5 / 100) = 125 calories of added sugar. He exceeded the recommended intake of 150 calories by 100% for a total consumption of 150 + (150(100 / 100)) = $300. This means he took in 300 - 125 = 175 calories from candy alone. Each candy had 25 calories so 175 calories which means he consumed 175 / 25 = 7 bars?. The answer is 7.

Q: Jennifer purchased 40 cans of milk at the store before meeting her classmate Mark, who was also buying milk. Jennifer bought 6 additional cans for every 5 cans Mark bought. If Mark purchased 50 cans, how many cans of milk did Jennifer bring home from the store?
A: If Mark bought 50 cans of milk, the number of times Jennifer added 6 cans for every 5 that Mark bought is 50 / 5 = 10 times. The total number of additional cans she bought is 10 * 6 = 60 cans. If she initially had 40 cans, she went home with 40 + 60 = 100 cans of milk. The answer is 100.

Q: A store ordered 300 more than twice as many pens as it did pencils at $5 each. If the cost of a pencil was $4, and the store ordered 15 boxes, each having 80 pencils, calculate the total amount of money they paid for the stationery.
A:
If the store ordered 15 boxes, each having 80 pencils, they ordered 15 * 80 = 1200 pencils. If the cost of a pencil was $4, the store paid $4 * 1200 = $4800 for all the pencils. Twice as many pens as pencils that the store ordered are 2 * 1200 = 2400. If A store ordered 300 more than twice as many pens as it did pencils, it ordered 2400 + 300 = 2700 pencils. Since the cost of the pens was $5, the store paid 2700 * $5 = $13500 for the pens. The total amount of money they paid for the stationery is 13500 + 4800 = $18300. The answer is 18300.
