Answer this question:Carrie and her mom go to the mall to buy new clothes for school. Carrie buys 4 shirts, 2 pairs of pants, and 2 jackets. Each shirt costs $8. Each pair of pants costs $18. Each jacket costs $60. If Carrie’s mom pays for half of the total cost of all the clothes, how much does Carrie pay for the clothes?
The total cost of shirts is 4 * $8 = $32. The total cost of pants is 2 * $18 = $36. The total cost of the jackets is 2 * $60 = $120. The total cost of the clothes is $32 + $36 + $120 = $188. Since Carrie’s mom pays for half of the total cost, Carrie pays $188 / 2 = $94.
The answer is 94.

Answer this question:Out of the 200 students in a class, thirty percent like the color blue. Among the remaining students who don't like the color blue, 40% like the color red, and the rest like the color yellow. Calculate the combined number of students who like the color yellow and the color blue.
The number of students who like the color blue is 30 / 100 * 200 = 60. Out of the 200 students in the class, 200 - 60 = 140 don't like the color blue. Among the students who don't like the color blue, 40 / 100 * 140 = 56 students like the color red. If the rest of the students like neither blue nor red and only like the color yellow, their number is 140 - 56 = 84. The total number of students who like the color yellow and those who like the color blue is 84 + 60 = 144.
The answer is 144.
