Answer this question:There are 30 major league baseball stadiums. Zach has a goal to take his son to see at least one game at each one. He has calculated the average cost for them to travel and see a game will be $900 per stadium. Zach can save $1,500 per year for his baseball stadium trips. How many years will it take Zach to accomplish his goal?
The total cost would be $900 x 30 stadiums = $27,000. Dividing the total cost by the amount Zach saves per year, we get $27,000 / $1,500 / year = 18 years.
The answer is 18.

Answer this question:Era had 5 burgers for her and her 4 friends. She sliced each burger into halves. The first and second friends got 1 and 2 slices, respectively. Then the third and fourth friends got 3 slices each. How many slices of burgers are left for Era?
There are 5 x 1 / 2 = 10 halves of burgers made from 5 whole burgers. Era's first and second friends got 1 + 2 = 3 slices together. Her third and fourth friends got 3 + 3 = 6 slices together. Era's four friends got 3 + 6 = 9 slices. So, Era is left with 10 - 9 = 1 slice.
The answer is 1.

Answer this question:After five years, Ron will be four times as old as Maurice. If Ron's age now is 43, how old is Maurice now?
If Ron is 43 now, he will be 43 + 5 = 48 years old in five years. After five years, Ron will be four times as old as Maurice, meaning Maurice will be 48 / 4 = 12 years old then. Currently, Maurice is 12 - 5 = 7 years old.
The answer is 7.

Answer this question:Bill is stocking the kitchenware section of the Walmart. He needs to stack 60 pots. On each shelf, he can stack five pots vertically and three sets of vertically stacked pots side-by-side. How many shelves does he need to stock all the pots?
First find how many pots fit on one shelf: 5 pots / set * 3 sets = 15 pots. Then divide the number of pots Bill has by the number that fit on each shelf: 60 pots / 15 pots / shelf = 4 shelves.
The answer is 4.
