Jean is wanted on 3 counts of arson, 2 burglary charges, and six times as many petty larceny as burglary charges.

Question: If each arson count has a 36-month sentence, each burglary charge is 18 months and each petty larceny charge is 1/3rd as long as a burglary charge, how many months in jail is Jean facing?
Answer: First find the total time for the burglary charges: 18 months/charge * 2 charges = 36 months
Then find the total time for the arson charges: 3 counts * 36 months/count = <<3*36=108>>108 months
Then find the time per larceny charge: 18 months / 3 = <<18/3=6>>6 months
Then find the total number of larceny charges: 2 charges * 6 = <<2*6=12>>12 charges
Then find the total time for the larceny charges: 6 months/charge * 12 charges = 72 months
Then add up the time for all the charges to find the total jail time: 36 months + 72 months + 108 months = <<36+72+108=216>>216 months

A YouTube video got 3000 likes and 100 more than half as many dislikes.

Question: If the video gets 1000 more dislikes and 0 more likes how many dislikes does the video have?
Answer: half as many as 3000 is 3000/2=<<3000/2=1500>>1500 dislikes
100 more than 1500 is 1500+100=<<1500+100=1600>>1600 dislikes
1000 more dislikes is 1600+1000=2600 dislikes

An apartment complex has 4 identical buildings. Each building has 10 studio apartments, 20 2 person apartments, and 5 4 person apartments.

Question: How many people live in the apartment complex if it has 75% of its maximum occupancy?
Answer: First, we find out how many people live in each building. In addition to 10 1 person apartments, as a studio apartment is for a single person, there are 20 2 person apartments meaning there are 20*2=<<20*2=40>>40 people capable of living there.
We then find out how many people can live in the 4 person apartments by multiplying the number of available 4 person apartments by 4, performing 5*4=20 people capable of living there.
So, in 1 building there is room for 10+40+20=<<10+40+20=70>>70 people.
We multiply this by the 4 buildings in total, finding a maximum occupancy of 4*70=<<4*70=280>>280 people
We then multiply this by .75 to find out how many people would live there at 75% of maximum occupancy, performing 280*.75= <<210=210>>210 people.

Mark is 18 years old. He has a little brother, John, who is 10 years younger.

Question: If John and Mark's parents are currently 5 times older than John, how old were they when Mark was born?
Answer: John is 8 years old because 18-10=<<18-10=8>>8 years old.
Their parents are currently 40 years old because 8*5=<<8*5=40>>40.
Therefore, they were 22 when Mark was born because 40-18 = <<40-18=22>>22 years old.

Gerald brings chocolate bars to school for his class to share. Each bar contains 8 squares. He brings 7 total bars. His teacher says that for every bar he brings, she will bring two more identical ones. There are 24 students in class.

Question: How many squares of chocolate does each student get?
Answer: The teacher brings 14 bars to school because 7 x 2 = <<7*2=14>>14
There are 21 total bars of chocolate because 7 + 14 = <<7+14=21>>21
There are 168 total squares of chocolate because 21 x 8 = <<21*8=168>>168
Each student gets 7 squares because 168 / 24 = <<168/24=7>>7

Vincent's bookstore is divided into different kinds of books. His top-selling books are fantasy books. He also sells literature books which cost half of the price of a fantasy book.

Question: If his fantasy books cost $4 each, and he sold five fantasy books and eight literature books per day, how much money will he earn after five days?
Answer: Vincent earns $4 x 5= $<<4*5=20>>20 for selling 5 fantasy books per day.
The price of the literature book is $4/2 = $<<4/2=2>>2 each.
He earns $2 x 8= $<<2*8=16>>16 per day for selling 8 literature books.
So the total money he earns per day is $16 + $20= $<<16+20=36>>36.
Therefore, he will earn $36 x 5= $<<36*5=180>>180 after 5 days.

Bronson is an apple dealer. He buys apples from farmers and then transports them to the grocery stores and sells them for profit. He buys individual apples from farmers at a cost of $12 per bushel, and sells them to the stores at a price of $0.40 per apple.

Question: If each bushel contains 48 apples, then how much profit, in dollars, does he make after selling 100 apples?
Answer: At a cost of $12 per bushel, and with 48 apples per bushel, then each apple costs Bronson $12/48=$<<12/48=0.25>>0.25
If he sells the apples to the stores at $0.40 per apple, then he makes a profit of $0.40-$0.25=$<<0.4-0.25=0.15>>0.15 per apple.
After selling 100 apples to the store, his profit would be 100*$0.15=$<<100*0.15=15>>15.

Betty ordered 18 items in an online shop via cash on delivery. She ordered 6 pieces of slippers that cost $2.5 each, 4 pieces of lipstick for $1.25 each, and 8 pieces of hair color for $3 each.

Question: How much did Betty pay in total when it was delivered?
Answer: Betty paid 6 x $2.5 = $<<6*2.5=15>>15 for the slippers.
She paid 4 x $1.25 = $<<4*1.25=5>>5 for the lipsticks.
She paid 8 x $3 = $<<8*3=24>>24 for the hair color.
Therefore, Betty paid $15 + $5 + $24 = $<<15+5+24=44>>44 in total.

Oliver owns a laundry shop, and he charges $2 per kilo of laundry. Two days ago, his shop washed a total of 5 kilos of laundries. Yesterday, it washed five kilos of laundries more than the previous day. Today, it washed twice the number of kilos than yesterday.

Question: How much did he earn for three days?
Answer: Yesterday, his shop washed 5 + 5 = <<5+5=10>>10 kilos of laundry.
Today, it washed 2 x 10 = <<2*10=20>>20 kilos of laundry.
Thus, Oliver's shop washed a total of 5 + 10 + 20 = <<5+10+20=35>>35 kilos of laundries for three days.
Therefore, his shop earned 35 x $2 = $<<35*2=70>>70 for three days.

Ian used a grocery delivery app to have his groceries delivered. His original order was $25 before delivery and tip. He noticed that 3 items changed on his order. A $0.99 can of tomatoes was replaced by a $2.20 can of tomatoes, his $1.00 lettuce was replaced with $1.75 head of lettuce and his $1.96 celery was replaced with celery that cost $2.00. Delivery and tip came to a total of $8.00.

Question: How much is his new bill now, with the food substitutes and delivery/tip?
Answer: He ordered a can of tomatoes for $0.99 but they subbed with one that cost $2.20 for a difference of 2.20-.99 = $<<2.20-.99=1.21>>1.21
He ordered lettuce for $1.00 but they subbed with one that cost $1.75 for a difference of 1.75-1.00 = $<<1.75-1.00=0.75>>0.75
His celery for $1.96 but they subbed with one that cost $2.00 for a difference of 2.00-1.96 = $0.04
That's an additional charge of 1.21+.75+.04 = $<<1.21+.75+.04=2.00>>2.00 in groceries
His additional charges of $2.00 and the delivery/tip of $8.00 add 2+8 = $<<2+8=10.00>>10.00 to the order
His original order was $25 and they added $10.00 so his new order is 25+10 = $<<25+10=35.00>>35.00

Question: What is the total cost of the fruit basket?
Answer: The bananas cost 4 x $1 = $<<4*1=4>>4
The apples cost 3 x $2 = $<<3*2=6>>6
The strawberries cost (24/12) x $4 = $<<(24/12)*4=8>>8
The avocados cost 2 x $3 = $<<2*3=6>>6
The grapes cost 2 x $2 = $<<2*2=4>>4
The total cost of the fruit basket is $4 + $6 + $8 + $6 + $4 = $<<4+6+8+6+4=28>>28

Carl is figuring out how much he'll need to spend on gas for his upcoming road trip to the Grand Canyon. His car gets 30 miles per gallon in cities and 40 miles per gallon on the highway. The distance from his house to the Grand Canyon, one way, is 60 city miles and 200 highway miles.

Question: If gas costs $3.00 per gallon, how much will Carl need to spend?
Answer: First figure out how many city miles Carl will drive round trip by multiplying the one-way number of city miles by 2: 60 miles * 2 = <<60*2=120>>120 miles
Then figure out how many highway miles Carl will drive round trip by multiplying the one-way number of highway miles by 2: 200 miles * 2 = <<200*2=400>>400 miles
Now divide the round-trip number of city miles by the number of city miles per gallon Carl's car gets: 120 miles / 30 mpg = <<120/30=4>>4 gallons
Now divide the round-trip number of highway miles by the number of highway miles per gallon Carl's car gets: 400 miles / 40 mpg = <<400/40=10>>10 gallons
Now add the gallons for the highway miles and the city miles to find the total number of gallons Carl needs to buy: 10 gallons + 4 gallons = <<10+4=14>>14 gallons
Finally, multiply the number of gallons Carl needs to buy by the cost per gallon to find out how much he spends: 14 gallons * $3.00 = $<<14*3=42.00>>42.00

Cassie is trimming her pet's nails. She has four dogs and eight parrots. Each dog has four nails on each foot, and each parrot has three claws on each leg, except for one parrot who has an extra toe.

Question: How many nails does Cassie need to cut?
Answer: First, find the number of dog nails by multiplying the number of dogs by the number of nails on each leg and the number of legs on each dog: 4 dogs * 4 legs per dog * 4 nails per leg = <<4*4*4=64>>64 nails.
Then do the same for parrots, ignoring the one parrot's extra toe for now: 8 parrots * 2 legs per parrot * 3 nails per leg = <<8*2*3=48>>48 nails
Now add one to the previous number because one parrot has an extra toe: 48 + 1 = <<48+1=49>>49 nails.
Now add the number of nails from the parrots and the dog: 49 nails + 64 nails = <<49+64=113>>113 nails.

Answer: The medical cost comes out to 45*10+250=$<<45*10+250=700>>700
Insurance covers 700*.8=$<<700*.8=560>>560
So he has to pay 700-560=$<<700-560=140>>140
Added to the cost of the trip he has to pay 1200+140=$<<1200+140=1340>>1340

Three builders build a single floor of a house in 30 days.

Question: If each builder is paid $100 for a single day’s work, how much would it cost to hire 6 builders to build 5 houses with 6 floors each?
Answer: 6 builders can build a single floor 6 builders / 3 builders = <<6/3=2>>2 times as fast as 3 builders.
Thus 6 builders would build a single floor in 30 days / 2 = 15 days
There are 5 hours x 6 floors/house = <<5*6=30>>30 floors in total in 5 houses with 6 floors each.
Therefore 6 builders would complete the project in 15 days/floor x 30 floors = 450 days.
It would cost 450 days x $100/day/builder * 6 builders = $<<450*100*6=270000>>270000 to complete the project

Mr. Reyansh has a dairy farm with 40 cows. Each cow on the farm drinks 80 liters of water daily. He also has a sheep ranch with 10 times the number of cows, with each sheep drinking 1/4 times as much water as a cow does.

Question: How many liters of water does Mr. Reyansh use to water all of his animals in a week?
Answer: If a cow drinks 80 liters of water in a day, it drinks 80*7= <<80*7=560>>560 liters of water per week.
Mr. Reyansh has 40 cows drinking 560 liters of water a week, totaling 560*40 = <<560*40=22400>>22400 liters.
In the ranch, a sheep drinks 1/4*80 = <<80*1/4=20>>20 liters of water in a day.
The total amount of liters a sheep drinks in a week is 20*7 = <<20*7=140>>140 liters
Mr. Reyansh has ten times as many sheep as cows, that is 10*40 = <<10*40=400>>400 sheep.
If each sheep drinks 140 liters of water in a week, 400 sheep drinks 400*140 = <<400*140=56000>>56000 liters of water.
Together, the cows and sheep drink 56000+22400 = <<56000+22400=78400>>78400 liters of water per week.

At the end of a circus act, there are 12 dogs on stage. Half of the dogs are standing on their back legs and the other half are standing on all 4 legs.

Question: How many dog paws are on the ground?
Answer: There are 12 dogs and half are standing on their back legs so that means 12/2 = <<12/2=6>>6 are standing on their back legs
A dog has 2 back legs and only 6 are standing on their back legs meaning that there are 2*6 = <<2*6=12>>12 paws on the ground
The other 6 dogs are standing on all 4 legs which means these 6 dogs have 6*4 = <<6*4=24>>24 paws on the ground
When you add them together 12+24 = <<12+24=36>>36 paws on the ground

Sarah interviewed 450 students at her school and asked them which fruit they liked best - oranges, apples, pears or strawberries. 70 students said they liked oranges, 120 students said they liked pears, and 147 students said they liked apples.

Question: How many students picked strawberries as their favorite fruit from the list?
Answer: First, you have to add the number of students that liked the three other fruits. Therefore, you have to add 70 + 120 + 147. This gives you a sum of 337.
We know that 450 students were interviewed, so you have to subtract 337 from 450 to get the number of students who liked strawberries. 450 - 337 = <<450-337=113>>113 students liked strawberries best out of all of the fruits.
