A: During breakfast, Blanch has 15 - 4 = 11 slices left. At lunch, she still has 11 - 2 = 9 slices left. After the snack, there are still 9 - 2 = 7 slices left. Finally after dinner, Blanch has 7 - 5 = 2 slices left. The answer is 2.
Question: My mother celebrated her birthday with a total of 60 guests. Half of the guests are women, 15 are men, and the rest are children. In the middle of the celebration, 1/3 of the men and 5 children left. How many people stayed and enjoyed the birthday celebration?
Answer: There were 60 guests / 2 = 30 women at my mother's birthday celebration. There were 30 women + 15 men = 45 men and women. So, 60 people - 45 men and women = 15 were children. Then, 15 men / 3 = 5 men left. Thus, 5 men + 5 children = 10 people left. Therefore, 60 people - 10 people = 50 people stayed and enjoyed the birthday celebration. The answer is 50.
[Question]Dorothy is 15 years old and wants to go to a museum with her family. Her family consists of her, her younger brother, her parents, and her grandfather. The regular ticket cost is $10. People 18 years old or younger have a discount of 30%. How much money will Dorothy have after this trip, when she currently has $70?
[Answer]The discount per one ticket is 10 * 30 / 100 = $3. So Dorothy's and her brother's tickets are cheaper by 2 * 3 = $6. Her family consists of 5 people, so the ticket cost stands at 5 * 10 = $50. Including the discount will lower the price to 50 - 6 = $44 in total. Dorothy will be left with 70 - 44 = $26. The answer is 26.
Q: Josh works 8 hours a day, 5 days a week, 4 weeks a month. Carl is an intern and works 2 hours less than Josh every day. Josh gets $9 an hour and Carl, half that. How much does the company pay for the 2 together in one month?
A: Josh works 8 hours / day * 5 days / week * 4 weeks / month = 160 hours a month. He earns 160 hours / month * $9 / month = $1440 per month. Carl works less because he is an intern: 6 hours / day * 5 days / week * 4 weeks / month = 120 hours per month. Carl earns 120 hours * $4.5 / hour = $540 per month. The company pays for the 2 together: $1440 + $540 = $1980. The answer is 1980.
Question: Mrs. Lim milks her cows twice a day. Yesterday morning, she got 68 gallons of milk and in the evening, she got 82 gallons. This morning, she got 18 gallons fewer than she had yesterday morning. After selling some gallons of milk in the afternoon, Mrs. Lim has only 24 gallons left. How much was her revenue for the milk if each gallon costs $3.50?
Answer: Mrs. Lim got 68 gallons - 18 gallons = 50 gallons this morning. So she was able to get a total of 68 gallons + 82 gallons + 50 gallons = 200 gallons. She was able to sell 200 gallons - 24 gallons = 176 gallons. Thus, her total revenue for the milk is $3.50 / gallon x 176 gallons = $616. The answer is 616.
Q: On his calculator, August had solved a math problem with an answer of 600. The following math problem had an answer twice as big as the answer of the first math problem, and the third math problem had an answer 400 less than the combined total answers of the first and the second math problems. What's the total of August's answers from solving the three math problems on his calculator?
A:
August solved a math problem that had an answer twice as big as the answer of the first math problem, meaning the next answer was 600 * 2 = 1200. The first math problem and the second math problem has answers totaling 1200 + 600 = 1800. The third math problem had an answer 400 less than the combined total answers of the first and the second math problems, meaning the third answer was 1800 - 400 = 1400. Altogether, the math problems that August solved on his computer had answers totaling 1800 + 1400 = 3200. The answer is 3200.
