The number of books borrowed on Friday is higher by 40 * 40 / 100 = 16 books. There are 5 days from Monday to Friday inclusive, so Krystian borrows an average of 5 * 40 = 200 books during that time. With Friday's increase in borrowings, during one week Krystian borrows 200 + 16 = 216 books.
The answer: 216

The number that left the camp on Saturday morning was 4 * 28 = 112 athletes. This means that in the camp there remained 300 - 112 = 188 athletes. The new group trickling in on Sunday morning comprised 7 * 15 = 105 athletes. The number that slept at the camp on Sunday night is therefore 188 + 105 = 293 athletes. Since there were 300 athletes on Saturday night, the difference is 300 - 293 = 7 athletes.
The answer: 7
Reverse engineering the question: A group of 300 athletes spent Saturday night at Ultimate Fitness Camp. The next morning, for 4 hours straight, they left the camp at a rate of 28 athletes per hour. Over the next 7 hours, a new group of athletes trickled into the camp at a rate of 15 athletes per hour. Immediately thereafter, the camp gate was shut and everyone went to bed. What is the difference in the total number of athletes in the camp over the two nights?


Reasoning and answer: His annual salary for the first year of working is 6000 x 12 = $72000. Kirt's monthly increase is $6000 x 30 / 100 = $1800. So, he received $6000 + $1800 = $7800 monthly on the second and third year of working. Kirt's annual salary in the second and third year was $7800 x 12 = $93600. . Thus, his total earning after 3 years is $72000 + $93600 + $93600 = $259200.
The answer: 259200
