Q: There are 20 sandcastles on Mark's beach, each with 10 towers. On Jeff's beach, there are three times as many castles as on Mark's beach, each with 5 towers. What is the combined total number of sandcastles and towers on Mark's and Jeff's beaches?
A: The total number of towers at Mark's beach is 20 * 10 = 200 towers. There are 200 + 20 = 220 sandcastles and towers on Mark's beach. Jeff's beach has 3 * 20 = 60 sandcastles, three times as many as the number of sandcastles in Mark's beach. The number of towers in each of the sandcastles on Jeff's beach is 1 / 2 * 10 = 5. Since each sandcastle has 5 towers on Jeff's beach, there are 5 * 60 = 300 towers. In total, on Jeff's beach, there are 300 + 60 = 360 towers and sandcastles. Altogether, 360 + 220 = 580 sandcastles and towers can be found on their beaches. The answer is 580.
Question: Marvin and Tina were selling candy bars to help fund their class trip. The candy bars cost $2 each. Marvin sold 35 candy bars total. Tina sold three times the number of candy bars as Marvin. How much more money did Tina make for the class trip selling candy bars compared to Marvin?
Answer: Marvin sold 35 candy bars at $2 each so 35 * 2 = $70 worth of candy. Tina sold three times the amount of candy so $70 * 3 = $210 worth of candy. If Tina sold $210 worth of candy and Marvin sold $70 in candy then 210 - 70 = $140 more sold than Marvin. The answer is 140.
[Question]A factory produced televisions at a constant rate of 10 per day in a certain year. If they reduced the total production by 10 percent in the second year, calculate the total production of television by the factory in the second year.
[Answer]Since a year has 365 days, the total television production in the first year is 10 * 365 = 3650. In the second year, they reduced the total television production by 10 / 100 * 3650 = 365. The total television production in the second year was 3650 - 365 = 3285. The answer is 3285.
Q: Joel is 5 years old and his dad is 32 years old. How old will Joel be when his dad is twice as old as him?
A: The difference in age between Joel and his dad is 32 - 5 = 27 years. When you double this gap in years, you have 27 x 2 = 54. When his dad is 54, Joel will be 54 / 2 = 27 years old. The answer is 27.
Question: From his apartment, Kona drives 9 miles to the bakery. From there, he drives 24 miles to his grandmother’s house. From her house, he drives 27 miles straight to his apartment. How many additional miles did Kona drive round trip to the bakery stop, compared to a round trip without the bakery stop?
Answer: With the bakery stop, Kona drove a total of 9 + 24 + 27 = 60 miles. Without the bakery stop, Kona drove a total of 27 + 27 = 54 miles. With the bakery stop, Kona drives an additional 60 - 54 = 6 miles. The answer is 6.
Q: Josie and her family went on a safari and had an exciting time watching different animals grazing and playing together. She decided to count each animal she saw and calculated their total number. She counted 80 antelopes, 34 more rabbits than antelopes, 42 fewer hyenas than the total number of antelopes and rabbits combined, 50 more wild dogs than hyenas, and the number of leopards was half the number of rabbits. What the total number of animals that Josie counted?
A:
The number of rabbits was 80 + 34 = 114. The total number of rabbits and antelopes is 114 + 80 = 194. The number of hyenas was 42 fewer than the combined number of antelopes and rabbits, which is 194 - 42 = 152. The number of wild dogs was 50 more than the number of hyenas, that is 152 + 50 = 202. The number of leopards is 1 / 2 * 114 = 57. The total number of animals Josie saw is 57 + 202 + 152 + 114 + 80 = 605. The answer is 605.
