Question: The swimming club went to a swim meet in another town. They took 2 cars and 3 vans. There were 5 people in each car and 3 people in each van. Each car can hold a maximum of 6 people and each van can hold a maximum of 8 people. How many more people could have ridden with the swim team?
Answer: The available number of people in each car is 6 * 2 cars = 12 people. The available number of people in each van is 8 * 3 vans = 24 people. The total number of people that could go with the team is 12 people + 24 people = 36 people. The team took with them 2 cars * 5 people = 10 people. The team also took 3 vans * 3 people = 9 people. The team brought 10 people + 9 people = 19 people. The team could bring an additional 36 people - 19 people = 17 people. The answer is 17.
[Question]Andrew holds a bake sale to fundraise for charity. The bake sale earns a total of $400. Andrew keeps $100 to cover the cost of ingredients. He donates half of the remaining total to the local homeless shelter, and the other half to the local food bank. Andrew also decides to donate $10 from his own piggy bank to the local homeless shelter. How much money in total does Andrew donate to the homeless shelter?
