[Question]Gloria wants to buy the $129,000 mountain cabin that her friend Alfonso is selling. She only has $150 in cash. She intends to raise the remaining amount by selling her mature trees for lumber. She has 20 cypress trees, 600 pine trees, and 24 maple trees. She will get $100 for each cypress tree, $300 for a maple tree, and $200 per pine tree. After paying Alfonso for the cabin, how much money will Gloria have left?
[Answer]The cypress trees will earn Gloria 20 trees * $100 / tree = $2000. From the sale of the cypress trees, Gloria will also make 600 trees * $200 / tree = $120000. Finally, the maple trees will bring in 24 trees * $300 / tree = $7200. Combining all the amounts will give Gloria a total of $150 + $2000 + $120000 + $7200 = $129350. Subtracting the cost of the mountain cabin from the total will leave Gloria with a balance of $129350 - $129000 = $350. The answer is 350.

[Question]The P.T.O. decided to provide shirts for the elementary students for track and field day. Each grade was given a different color. 101 Kindergartners wore orange shirts that cost $5.80 each. 113 first graders wore yellow shirts that cost $5 each. 107 second graders wore blue shirts that cost $5.60 each. 108 third graders wore green shirts that cost $5.25 each. How much did the P.T.O. spend on shirts for field day?
[Answer]The cost for 101 Kindergarten shirts x $5.80 = $585.80. The cost for 113 first grade shirts x $5 = $565. The cost for 107 second grade shirts x $5.60 = $599.20. The cost for 108 third grade shirts x $5.25 = $567. The total cost of the shirts was $585.80 + $565 + $599.20 + $567 = $2,317. The answer is 2317.
