Question: Donna worked 2 hours every morning walking dogs in her neighborhood for $10.00 an hour. 5 days a week, after school, she worked at a card shop for 2 hours and made $12.50 an hour. On the weekends, she usually made $10.00 an hour babysitting and was guaranteed 4 hours every Saturday from her neighbor. How much money did she make over 7 days?
Answer with step-by-step thinking: She makes $10.00 an hour for 2 hours walking dogs so she makes 10 * 2 = $20.00 every morning. Over 7 days she makes 7 * 20 = $140.00 a week. She makes $12.50 for 2 hours working at a card shop so she makes 12.5 * 2 = $25.00. She works there 5 days a week so she makes 5 * 25 = $125.00 a week. She also babysits for 4 hours making $10.00 an hour for a total of 4 * 10 = $40.00. Over 7 days, she makes 140 + 125 + 40 = $305.00.
So the answer is 305.


Question: For a fundraiser, Nellie needs to sell 45 rolls of gift wrap. So far, she has sold 1 roll to her grandmother, 10 rolls to her uncle, and 6 rolls to a neighbor. How many more rolls of gift wrap does Nellie need to sell?
Answer with step-by-step thinking: The number of rolls already sold is 1 + 10 + 6 = 17. Nellie needs to sell 45 − 17 = 28 more rolls of gift wrap.
So the answer is 28.


Question: Abigail built 10 fences. Each fence took her 30 minutes to build. If she builds fences for the next 8 hours, how many fences would she have built in total?
Answer with step-by-step thinking:
8 * 60 = 480 minutes are in the next 8 hours. Abigail builds 480 / 30 = 16 fences. Abigail will have built 10 + 16 = 26 fences in total.
So the answer is 26.
