[Question]The dinner bill for 6 friends came to $150. Silas said he would pay for half of the bill and the remaining friends could split the rest of the bill and leave a 10% tip for the whole meal. How many dollars will one of the friends pay?
[Answer]Silas paid half = 150 / 2 = 75. Remaining bill paid by 5 friends = 75 + 10% of 150 = 75 + 15 = 90. Each person will pay 1 / 5 which is 90 / 5 = 18. Each friend will pay $18. The answer is 18.
Q: Heisenberg owns a pharmacy. He earned a total of $80 from 100 mg amoxicillin and $60 from 500 mg amoxicillin every week. If each capsule of 100 mg amoxicillin costs $5 and each capsule of 500 mg amoxicillin costs $2, how many capsules of amoxicillin does he sell every 2 weeks?
A: Heisenberg sells a total of $80 / 5 = 16 capsules of 100 mg amoxicillin every week. So, the total number of 100 mg amoxicillin he sells every 2 weeks is 16 x 2 = 32. And he sells $60 / 2 = 30 capsules of 500 mg amoxicillin every week. So, the total number of 500 mg amoxicillin he sells every 2 weeks is 30 x 2 = 60. Therefore, the total number of capsules he sells every 2 weeks is 60 + 32 = 92. The answer is 92.
Question: Dale owns 4 sports cars. The red one can travel at twice the speed of the green one, but the green one can travel at 8 times the speed of the blue one. The yellow one is broken and cannot move at all. If the blue one can travel at a speed of 80 miles per hour, at what speed, in miles per hour, can the red car travel?
Answer: If the blue car can travel at 80 mph, then the green one can travel at 8 * 80 = 640 mph. If the green car can travel at 640 mph, then the red can travel at 2 * 640 = 1280 mph. The answer is 1280.
[Question]Annabelle collected a weekly allowance of $30. She spent a third of it buying junk food, then spent another $8 on sweets. Out of guilt she decides to save the rest. How much did she save?
[Answer]A third of $30 is $30 * (1 / 3) = $10. She spent $10 from $30 leaving $30 - $10 = $20. She spent another $8 leaving $20 - $8 = $12 which she saved. The answer is 12.
Q: Mia has 4 times as many shells as David. Ava has 20 more shells than Mia. Alice has half the number of shells Ava has. If David has 15 shells, what the total number of conch shells they all have?
A: If David has 15 shells, then Mia has 4 * 15 = 60 shells. Ava has 20 more shells than Mia, so that is 60 + 20 = 80 shells. Alice has 1 / 2 the number of shells Ava has, which is 1 / 2 * 80 = 40 shells. The total number of shells all of them have is 15 + 60 + 80 + 40 = 195 shells. The answer is 195.
Question: Mark's basketball team scores 25 2 pointers, 8 3 pointers and 10 free throws. Their opponents score double the 2 pointers but half the 3 pointers and free throws. What's the total number of points scored by both teams added together?
Answer:
Mark's team scores 25 2 pointers, meaning they scored 25 * 2 = 50 points in 2 pointers. His team also scores 6 3 pointers, meaning they scored 8 * 3 = 24 points in 3 pointers. They scored 10 free throws, and free throws count as one point so they scored 10 * 1 = 10 points in free throws. All together his team scored 50 + 24 + 10 = 84 points. Mark's opponents scored double his team's number of 2 pointers, meaning they scored 50 * 2 = 100 points in 2 pointers. His opponents scored half his team's number of 3 pointers, meaning they scored 24 / 2 = 12 points in 3 pointers. They also scored half Mark's team's points in free throws, meaning they scored 10 / 2 = 5 points in free throws. All together Mark's opponents scored 100 + 12 + 5 = 117 points. The total score for the game is both team's scores added together, so it is 84 + 117 = 201 points. The answer is 201.
