Question: Davonte is trying to figure out how much space his art collection takes up. He measures his paintings and finds he has three square 6-foot by 6-foot paintings, four small 2-foot by 3-foot paintings, and one large 10-foot by 15-foot painting. How many square feet does his collection take up?
Answer: His square paintings take up 36 square feet each because 6 x 6 = 36. His small paintings take 6 square feet each because 2 x 3 = 6. His large painting takes up 150 square feet because 10 x 15 = 150. Combined, his square paintings take up 108 square feet because 3 x 36 = 108. Combined, his small paintings take up 24 square feet because 4 x 6 = 24. In total, his paintings take up 282 square feet because 150 + 108 + 24 = 282. The answer is 282.

Question: To upgrade her kitchen, Amanda is changing out the doorknobs/pulls. She’s replacing 18 cabinet knobs, which cost $2.50 each and 8 drawer pulls which cost $4.00. How much will the kitchen upgrade cost her?
Answer: She’s replacing 18 cabinet knobs for $2.50 each for a total of 18 * 2.50 = $45.00. She’s replacing 8 drawer pulls for $4.00 each for a total of 8 * 4 = $32.00. The cabinet knobs will cost $45.00 and the pulls will cost $32.00 for a total of 45 + 32 = $77.00 in upgrades. The answer is 77.

Question: The Zargon Destroyer spacecraft can travel at 2 billion miles per hour in normal space, but when moving through a black hole they travel three times faster. If the Zargon Destroyer is making a voyage that travels seven hours in normal space and two hours through a black hole, how many billions of miles would they have traveled?
Answer: A spacecraft flying through normal space for seven hours at 2 - billion miles per hour travels 7 * 2 = 14 billion miles. A spacecraft flying through a black hole at 3 * 2 = 6 billion miles per hour. Thus, a spacecraft flying through a black hole for two hours travels 2 * 6 = 12 billion miles. Therefore, in total, the Zargon spacecraft will travel 14 + 12 = 26 billion miles. The answer is 26.

Question: John wants to finish a show in 5 days. There are 20 episodes and they are each 30 minutes long. How many hours does he have to watch a day?
Answer:
He wants to watch 20 * 30 = 600 minutes. So he needs to watch 600 / 60 = 10 hours. That means he needs to watch 10 / 5 = 2 hours a day. The answer is 2.
