Q: James needs 40 fish to make one sushi roll. He goes to the market and buys 400 fish, but later finds out that 20% of the fish have gone bad and cannot be used. How many sushi rolls did James make with the remaining fish?
A: If James bought 400 fish, the number of fish that were bad is 20 / 100 * 400 = 80. The remaining fish that he used to make the sushi rolls is 400 - 80 = 320. If 40 fish are required to make one sushi roll, 320 fish will make 320 / 40 = 8 sushi rolls. The answer is 8.

[Question]Tom bought 10 packages of miniature racing cars. Each package contains five cars. He gave each of his two nephews 1/5 of the cars. How many miniature racing cars are left with Tom?
[Answer]Tom had 10 x 5 = 50 miniature racing cars. Tom gave 50 x 1 / 5 = 10 miniature racing cars to each of his two nephews. So, he gave a total of 10 x 2 = 20 cars to his two nephews. Therefore, Tom is left with 50 - 20 = 30 miniature racing cars. The answer is 30.
Q: Annalise was sent by her mother to the store to buy 10 boxes of Kleenex Ultra Soft Facial Tissues. If each box has 20 packs of tissues and each pack contain 100 tissues sold at five cents each, calculate the total amount of money Annalise spent to buy the ten boxes.
A: If a box of tissue has 20 packs of tissues, ten boxes have 20 packs / box * 10 boxes = 200 packs. Since each pack has 100 tissues, Annalise bought 100 tissues / pack * 200 packs = 20000 tissues. Annalise bought 20000 tissues at five cents each, at a total cost of 20000 tissues * $0.05 = $1000. The answer is 1000.
Question: Every Sunday John is allowed to watch cartoons. However, for every 10 minutes of cartoons, he has to do 8 minutes of chores. If he watches cartoons for 2 hours, how many minutes of chores does he have to do?
Answer: He watched for 120 minutes because 2 x 60 = 120. This means 12 blocks of chores must be done because 120 / 10 = 12. He has to do 96 minutes of chores because 12 x 8 = 96. The answer is 96.
Q: A local restaurant was offering a "Build Your Own Hot Brownie" dessert. The brownie cost $2.50 and each scoop of ice cream costs $1.00. Any syrup costs $0.50 and nuts cost $1.50. If Juanita orders the brownie with 2 scoops of ice cream, double syrup, and nuts, how much will her dessert cost?
A:
She orders 2 scoops of ice cream that's $1.00 per scoop so the ice cream costs 2 * 1 = $2.00. She wants double syrup. The syrup is $0.50 so that will cost 2 * .50 = $1.00. The brownie is $2.50, the ice cream will be $2.00, the syrup will be $1.00 and the nuts will be $1.50 bringing her total to 2.5 + 2 + 1 + 1.5 = $7.00. The answer is 7.
