Although his salary is $450 per week, his actual paycheck is reduced in size because there are some taxes, insurance payments, and fees removed from his pay before his employer writes the check. If the government removes 1/3 in federal taxes and 8% in state taxes, the health insurance removes $50 per week, the life insurance removes $20 per week, and the city charges him a fee of $10 per week for parking, then what is the final amount left in Bobby's paycheck, in dollars?" in 5?

Each flamingo has 20 tail feathers, and it's only safe to pluck 25% of their tail feathers at one time. If Milly needs to make 12 boas, and each boa has 200 feathers, how many flamingoes does she need to harvest?" in 4? Please use examples related to potential situations in this context and cite relevant research. [/INST] First find the number of feathers Milly can get from one flamingo: 20 feathers * 25% = 5 feathers
Then find how many feathers she needs total: 12 boas * 200 feathers/boa = 2400 feathers
Then divide the number of feathers she needs by the number of feathers per flamingo to find the number of flamingoes she needs to harvest: 2400 feathers / 5 feathers/flamingo = 480 flamingoes

<s>[INST] Can you write a short introduction about the relevance of the term "Jim is a maintenance worker at a pool. Every time someone jumps in the pool, they cause 400 ml of water to splash out and evaporate. Jim has to get everyone out of the pool, clean, and refill it when it gets below 80% full. If the pool holds 2000 L of water, how many times can people jump in the pool before Jim has to clean it?" in 1? Please use examples related to potential situations in this context and cite relevant research. [/INST] First figure out how many liters of water are left in the pool when it's 80% full: 2000L * .8 = 1600 L
Now subtract that amount from the pool's total capacity to find how much water can splash out before Jim has to refill it: 2000 L - 1600 L = 400 L
Now multiply that amount by 1000 to convert it to milliliters: 400 L * 1000 ml/L = 400,000 ml
Finally, divide that amount by the amount that splashes out with each jump to find the number of jumps before pool cleaning: 400,000 ml / 400 ml/jump = 1000 jumps

Please use examples related to potential situations in this context and cite relevant research. [/INST] The coach has 8 liters * 1000 ml/liter = 8,000 ml of water.
She pours 200 ml/player x 30 players = 6,000 ml of water in total for all the athletes.
The water spill means 6,000 ml + 250 ml = 6,250 ml of water was used.
There was 8,000 ml - 6,250 ml = 1,750 ml of water left.
