[Question]Stan makes a playlist for the next time he goes running. He has 10 3-minute songs and 15 2-minute songs on his playlist. His entire run takes 100 minutes. If Stan wants a playlist to cover his entire run, how many more minutes of songs will he need in his playlist?
[Answer]His playlist currently has a playtime of 10 songs * 3 minutes = 30 minutes from 3 - minute songs. It also has a playtime of 15 songs * 2 minutes = 30 minutes from 2 - minute songs. So far, his playlist lasts for 30 + 30 = 60 minutes. He therefore still needs 100 minutes for his run – 60 minutes current playtime = 40 minutes. The answer is 40.
Q: If eight movie tickets cost 2 times as much as one football game ticket, and each movie ticket is sold at $30, calculate the total amount of money Chandler will pay if he buys eight movie tickets and five football game tickets.
A: If each movie ticket is sold at $30, the cost of buying eight movie tickets is 8 * $30 = $240. Since eight movie tickets cost 2 times as much as one football game ticket, the cost of buying one football game ticket is $240 / 2 = $120. Buying five football game tickets will cost 5 * $120 = $600. The total cost of buying eight movie tickets and five football game tickets is $600 + $240 = $840. The answer is 840.
Question: Haman’s father has an egg business supplying the local market. On a Wednesday morning, his father sends him to go and collect 10 trays of eggs for sale from their store. While loading the eggs into the car, he accidentally drops two trays. He calls his father telling him this, and is told to add 7 more trays for sale. How many eggs were sold that day?
Answer: When Haman collected 10 trays and dropped 2 trays, he was left with 10 trays - 2 trays = 8 trays. When he added 7 more trays, the total number of trays became 8 trays + 7 trays = 15 trays. Since each tray contains 36 eggs, the total number of eggs to be sold is 36 eggs / tray * 15 trays = 540 eggs. The answer is 540.
[Question]There are 35 bottles of milk on the grocery store shelf. Jason buys 5 of the bottles and Harry buys 6 more. How many bottles of milk are left on the store shelf after Jason and Harry purchased milk?

Q: Cortney is downloading some files to her computer. Her internet speed is 2 megabits per minute. If she can download the files one at a time and the files she is downloading have the size of 80 megabits, 90 megabits, and 70 megabits. How many hours will it take for her to download all of it?
A: The first file will take 80 / 2 = 40 minutes to download. The second file will take 90 / 2 = 45 minutes to download. And the third file will take 70 / 2 = 35 minutes to download. So, it will take 40 + 45 + 35 = 120 minutes for all the files to download. Therefore, the total hours she will have to spend to download all the files is 120 / 60 = 2 hours. The answer is 2.
Question: James decides to try and collect rare artifacts in the field. He spends 6 months researching before going on a 2-year-long expedition for his first find. The second artifact takes 3 times as long for the research and discovery. How long did it take him to find both?
Answer:
The research took 6 / 12 = .5 years. So it took 2 + .5 = 2.5 years for the first artifact. It takes 2.5 * 3 = 7.5 years for the second. So in total it took 2.5 + 7.5 = 10 years to find both. The answer is 10.
