A state fair charges $5 for a ticket. Two-thirds of the people who buy a ticket will buy deep-fried fair food for $8, one quarter will go on a ride for $4, and one eighth will spend $15 on a souvenir. The fair made $2520 from tickets.

Question: How many dollars did they make in all?
Answer: The fair made $2520 from tickets, so they had 2520 / 5 = <<2520/5=504>>504 people attend the fair.
Two-thirds of those people will buy food, so 504 * 2 / 3 = <<504*2/3=336>>336 people will buy food.
The fair will make 336 * 8 = $<<336*8=2688>>2688 from food.
A quarter of the people will go on a ride, so 504 / 4 = <<504/4=126>>126 people will go on a ride.
The fair will make 126 * 4 = $<<126*4=504>>504 from rides.
An eighth of the people will buy a souvenir, so 504 / 8 = <<504/8=63>>63 people will buy souvenirs.
The fair will make 63 * 15 = $<<63*15=945>>945 from souvenirs.
In all, the fair will make 2520 + 2688 + 504 + 945 = $<<2520+2688+504+945=6657>>6657.

Lana and Mike are taking their dog and renting a cabin in the mountains for 2 weeks. The daily rate is $125.00  There is a $100.00 pet fee. There is also a 20% service/cleaning fee for the rental. They need to pay 50% of the entire bill as a security deposit.

Question: How much is their security deposit?
Answer: There are 7 days in a week and they're going for 2 weeks so that's 7*2 = <<7*2=14>>14 days
The daily rate is $125.00 and they are staying for 14 days so that's 125*14 = $<<125*14=1750.00>>1,750.00
There is also a $100.00 pet fee on top of their rental fee of $1,750.00 so that's 100+1750 = $<<100+1750=1850.00>>1850.00
There is a 20% fee on the $1,850.00 so the fee comes to .20*1850 = $370.00
The rental will costs $1,850.00 and there is $370.00 service/cleaning fee for a total of 1850+370 = $<<1850+370=2220.00>>2,220.00
They need to pay 50% of the entire bill as a security deposit so that will be .5*2220 = $<<50*.01*2220=1110.00>>1,110.00

Ali, Peter, and Joey were fishing. The fish Ali caught weighed, in sum, twice as much as the fish that Peter caught. Joey caught 1 kg more fish than Peter. Together the three of them caught 25 kg of fish.

Question: How many kilograms did Ali catch?
Answer: Let x be the weight of the fish that Peter caught. Then Ali and Joey caught 2*x and x+1 kg of fish, respectively.
So, x+ 2*x + x+1 =25
So, 4*x = 25 - 1 = 24
So, x = <<6=6>>6
Therefore, Ali caught 2*x = 2*6 = 12 kg of fish

A forester is planting trees. The forest already has 30 native trees. On Monday he triples the number of total trees in the forest by planting new trees. On Tuesday, he plants a third of the amount he planted on Monday.

Question: How many trees has the forester planted in total?
Answer: Let M be the number of trees he plants on Monday.
On Monday the forest was three times larger from the trees that were originally there and the M trees: 3*30 = 30 + M trees.
So, 90=30+M.
And, M = <<60=60>>60 trees.
On Tuesday, he planted 60 trees / 3 = <<60/3=20>>20 trees.
In total, he has planted 60 trees + 20 trees = <<60+20=80>>80 trees.

John has to pay taxes. He earned $100,000 for the year. He has $30,000 in deductions. The first $20,000 of taxable income is taxed at 10%. The rest is taxed at 20%.

Question: How much does he pay in taxes?
Answer: His taxable income is 100,000-30,000=$<<100000-30000=70000>>70,000
So he pays 20,000*.1=$<<20000*.1=2000>>2000 tax at the lower rate
He has to pay 70,000-20,000=$<<70000-20000=50000>>50,000 at the higher rate
The taxes for that is 50,000*.2=$<<50000*.2=10000>>10,000

Amanda and her family are going to re-paint all the walls inside their house. Before they get started they want to divide up the work. Since all the rooms in the house have different numbers and sizes of walls in them, they figure the fairest way to divide up the work is to count all the walls in the house and assign an equal number to each person. There are 5 people in Amanda's family, including herself. There are 9 rooms in the house. 5 of the rooms have 4 walls each. The other 4 rooms each have 5 walls each.

Question: To be fair, how many walls should each person in Amanda's family paint?
Answer: First, Amanda needs to figure out how many walls there are in the house, 5 rooms x 4 walls each = <<5*4=20>>20 walls.
The other 4 rooms have x 5 walls each = 20 walls.
The house has 20 walls + 20 walls = <<20+20=40>>40 walls total.
To divide the work equally between the 5 people, 40 walls / 5 people = <<40/5=8>>8 walls for each person.

There are 322 voters in District 1. District 2 has 19 less voters than District 3. District 3 has twice as many voters as District 1.

Question: How many total voters are in Districts 1 - 3?
Answer: D1 = <<322=322>>322
D3 = 2 * 322 = <<2*322=644>>644
D2 = 644 - 19 = <<644-19=625>>625
322 + 625 + 644 = <<322+625+644=1591>>1591

In the Oprah Winfrey High School marching band, each trumpet and clarinet player carries 5 pounds of weight, each trombone player carries 10 pounds of weight, each tuba player carries 20 pounds of weight, and each drum player carries 15 pounds of weight.

Question: If there are 6 trumpets, 9 clarinets, 8 trombones, 3 tubas, and 2 drummers, how much weight does the total marching band carry?
Answer: First find the total number of clarinet and trumpet players: 6 players + 9 players = <<6+9=15>>15 players
Then find the total weight of the trumpets and clarinets: 15 players * 5 pounds/player = <<15*5=75>>75 pounds
Then find the total weight of the trombones: 8 players * 10 pounds/player = <<8*10=80>>80 pounds
Then find the total weight of the tubas: 3 players * 20 pounds/player = <<3*20=60>>60 pounds
Then find the total weight of the drummers: 2 drummers * 15 pounds/player = <<2*15=30>>30 pounds
Then add the weight of each type of instrument to find the total weight: 75 pounds + 80 pounds + 60 pounds + 30 pounds = <<75+80+60+30=245>>245 pounds
