Michael ran a bakeshop and had to fill an order for 5 peach pies, 4 apple pies and 3 blueberry pies. Each pie recipe called for 3 pounds of fruit each. At the market, produce was on sale for $1.00 per pound for both blueberries and apples. The peaches each cost $2.00 per pound.

Question: How much will Michael spend at the market buying the fruit for his pie order?
Answer: Each pie needs 3 pounds of fruit so for 5 Peach pies, 3*5=<<3*5=15>>15 pounds of fruit
3 pounds of fruit for 4 apple pies is 3*4 = <<3*4=12>>12 pounds
3 pounds of fruit for 3 blueberry pies is 3*3 = <<3*3=9>>9 pounds
He needs 12 pounds of apples and 9 pounds of blueberries so 12+9 = <<12+9=21>>21
21 pounds of fruit at $1.00 per pound is 21*1 = $<<21*1=21.00>>21.00
15 pounds of peaches will cost $2.00 per pound so 15*2 = $<<15*2=30>>30
The apple and blueberries will cost $21.00 and the peaches will cost $30 so 21+30 = $<<21+30=51>>51

A normal lemon tree produces 60 lemons per year. Jim has specially engineered lemon trees that produce 50% more lemons per year. He has a grove that is 50 trees by 30 trees.

Question: How many lemons does he produce in 5 years?
Answer: Each tree produces 60*.5=<<60*.5=30>>30 more lemons than normal
So they each produce 60+30=<<60+30=90>>90 lemons
He has 50*30=<<50*30=1500>>1500 trees
So every year he produces 1500*90=<<1500*90=135000>>135000 lemons
That means he produces 135000*5=<<135000*5=675000>>675,000

Yves and his siblings ordered pizza and asked to have it cut into 16 slices. During dinner time, they only ate one-fourth of it. The next day, Yves ate one-fourth of the remaining pizza. Then his two siblings ate 2 slices each.

Question: How many slices of pizza were left?
Answer: During dinner time, Yves and his siblings ate 16/4 = <<16/4=4>>4 slices.
So the next day, there were still 16 - 4 = <<16-4=12>>12 slices left.
The next day, Yves ate 12/4 = <<12/4=3>>3 slices of pizza.
Thus, there were 12 - 3 = <<12-3=9>>9 slices left.
Then, his two siblings ate 2 x 2 = <<2*2=4>>4 slices of pizza.
Therefore, there were still 9 - 4 = <<9-4=5>>5 slices of pizza left.

At the Mystic Aquarium, sharks are fed four buckets of fish each day. The dolphins are fed half as many buckets as the sharks while the other sea animals are fed five times as many buckets as the sharks.

Question: How many weeks will 546 buckets of fish last?
Answer: The dolphins are fed 4/2 = <<4/2=2>>2 buckets of fish each day.
The sea animals are fed 4 x 5 = <<4*5=20>>20 buckets of fish each day.
So, the Mystic Aquarium needs 4 + 2 + 20 = <<4+2+20=26>>26 buckets of fish each day.
Thus in a week, it needs 26 x 7 = <<26*7=182>>182 buckets of fish.
Therefore, 546 buckets of fish will last for 546/182 = <<546/182=3>>3 weeks.

Fiona and Casey share the hoodies they own. Between the two of them, they own eight hoodies. Casey owns two more than Fiona.

Question: How many hoodies does Fiona own?
Answer: Let H be the number of hoodies Fiona owns.
Casey owns H + 2 hoodies.
Together, they own H + H + 2 = 2H + 2 = 8 hoodies.
Thus, 2H = 8 - 2 = 6 hoodies.
Therefore, Fiona owns H = 6 / 2 = <<6/2=3>>3 hoodies.

Yoque borrowed money from her sister. She promised to pay it back in 11 months including an additional 10% of the money she borrowed.

Question: If she pays $15 per month, how much money did she borrow?
Answer: In 11 months, Yoque will pay a total of $15 x 11 = $<<15*11=165>>165.
The amount $165 is 100% + 10% = 110% of the money she borrowed.
So, 1% is equal to $165/110 = $<<165/110=1.50>>1.50.
Hence, Yoque borrowed $1.50 x 100 = $<<1.50*100=150>>150.
#### 150
Zion is 8 years old and his dad is 3 more than 4 times his age.

Question: In 10 years, how many years older is Zion's dad than him?
Answer: Four times Zion's age is 8 x 4 = <<8*4=32>>32.
So Zion's dad is 32 + 3 = <<32+3=35>>35 years old.
In 10 years, Zion will be 8 + 10 = <<8+10=18>>18 years old.
In 10 years, Zion's dad will be 35 + 10 = <<35+10=45>>45 years old.
Hence, in 10 years, Zion's dad will be 45 - 18 = <<45-18=27>>27 years older than Zion.

A local bookshop is selling off its old inventory in order to bring in newer books. They currently have 743 books in their store. They sold 37 books in-store on Saturday and sold 128 books online. On Sunday, they sold twice as many books in-store and increased their online sales by 34 books. They also received a shipment of 160 books.

Question: How many books do they currently have?
Answer: On Sunday they sold twice as many books in-store as the 37 books on Saturday so they sold 2*37 = <<2*37=74>>74
They sold 128 books online on Saturday and increased that number by 34 books on Sunday for a total of 128+34 = <<128+34=162>>162
Over the weekend they sold 37+128+74+162 = <<37+128+74+162=401>>401 books
They started off with 743 books and sold 401 books which brings the inventory to 743-401 = <<743-401=342>>342 books
They have 342 books and received a shipment for 160 bringing their inventory to 342+160 = <<342+160=502>>502 books

A rancher owns a mixture of 8 sheep and 5 cattle that graze on his land. In a typical year, the rancher will allow his animals to feed off his pastures for as long as possible before they run out of grass. After the pastures run out of grass, he must buy feed corn for $10 per bag. Each cow eats 2 acres of grass per month, and each sheep eats 1 acre of grass per month. Additionally, a bag of feed corn can feed each cow for 1 month and each sheep for 2 months.

Question: If the rancher's pasture contains 144 acres of grass, how much will the rancher need to spend on feed corn to feed his animals each year?
Answer: First, the 144 acres of grass will be eaten according to the equation 5*2*T + 8*1*T = 144.
Solving this equation for T, we find 18*T = 144, or T = 8 months of food are covered by the animals grazing on the rancher's pasture.
This means the farmer must buy feed corn for the remaining 12 - 8 = <<12-8=4>>4 months.
Next, the rancher's 8 sheep will require 4/2 = 2 bags of feed corn each, or 8*2 = <<8*2=16>>16 bags of feed corn in total for the 4 month period.
The rancher's 5 cows will require 4/1 = 4 bags of feed corn each, or 5*4 = <<5*4=20>>20 bags of feed corn in total for the month.
Therefore, the rancher needs 16+20 = <<16+20=36>>36 bags of feed corn for all of his animals.
So, the rancher will need to spend 36*10 = $<<36*10=360>>360 per year on feed corn.
#### 360
Tom receives a $12 allowance per month. In the first week, he spends a third of it; in the second week, he spends a quarter of what he has left.

Question: How much money does he have left to finish the month?
Answer: The first week he spends: $12 * 1/3 = $<<12*1/3=4>>4.
So he has $12 - $4 = $<<12-4=8>>8 left.
In the second week, he spends $8 x 1/4 = $<<8*1/4=2>>2.
So Tom has $8 - $2 = $<<8-2=6>>6 left to finish the month.
#### 6
Granger has five times as many spots as his brother, Cisco. But Cisco has 5 less than half as many spots as his cousin, Rover.

Question: If Rover has 46 spots, how many spots do Granger and Cisco have combined?
Answer: If Rover has 46 spots, then half as many spots as Rover has is 46/2=<<46/2=23>>23 spots.
If Cisco has 5 less than half as many spots as Rover has, then Cisco has 23-5=<<23-5=18>>18 spots.
If Granger has five times as many spots as Cisco, then Rover has 18*5=<<18*5=90>>90 spots.
Thus, the total combined number of spots that Rover and Cisco have is 90+18=<<90+18=108>>108 spots.
#### 108
Jon drinks a bottle of water that is 16 ounces every 4 hours for the 16 hours he is awake. Twice a day he also drinks a bottle that is 25% larger than those bottles.

Question: How much fluid does he drink a week?
Answer: He drinks 16/4=<<16/4=4>>4 of the small bottles each day
That is 4*16=<<4*16=64>>64 ounces
The larger bottles are 16*.25=<<16*.25=4>>4 ounces larger
So the large bottles are 16+4=<<16+4=20>>20 ounces
So he drinks 20*2=<<20*2=40>>40 ounces of those a day
So he drinks 64+40=<<64+40=104>>104 ounces a day
That means he drinks 104*7=<<104*7=728>>728 ounces a day
#### 728
The ratio of boys to girls in a classroom is 3:5.

Question: If there are 4 more girls than boys, how many students are in the classroom?
Answer: Since the ratio of boys to girls is 3:5, then the class is divided into 3 + 5 = <<3+5=8>>8 parts.
The girls have 5 - 3 = <<5-3=2>>2 parts more than the boys.
Since 2 parts are equal to 4, then 1 part is equal to 4/2 = 2 students.
Hence, there are 8 parts x 2 = <<8*2=16>>16 students.

Laran has started a poster business. She is selling 5 posters per day at school. Two posters per day are her large posters that sell for $10. The large posters cost her $5 to make. The remaining posters are small posters that sell for $6. They cost $3 to produce.

Question: How much profit, in dollars, does Laran make per 5-day school week?
Answer: The profit made for each large poster is $10 - $5 = $<<10-5=5>>5.
Each day Laran earns $5 * 2 = $<<5*2=10>>10 from selling large posters.
The profit made for each small poster is $6 - $3 = $<<6-3=3>>3.
Each day Laran earns $3 * 3 = $<<3*3=9>>9 from selling small posters.
Laran makes a total profit of $10 + $9 = $<<10+9=19>>19 per day.
For a 5 day school week, Laran makes a profit of 5 * $19 = $<<5*19=95>>95.

Sarah is playing tic-tac-toe. She wins $1 for every game she wins, $0 for every game she ties, and she loses $2 for every game she loses.

Question: If she played 100 games where she tied 40 of them, and she lost $30, how many games did she win?
Answer: She either won or lost 60 games because 100 - 40 = <<100-40=60>>60
We know that 1(60-Losses) -2(Losses) = -30 because she lost $30
Therefore 60 - Losses - 2 Losses= -30
Therefore - 3 Losses = -90
Therefore, Losses = <<30=30>>30

Ruby was going to order pizza for dinner. Her son would only eat pepperoni pizza. Her daughter would only eat sausage. Ruby and her husband wanted black olive and mushroom pizza. To make life easy, Ruby decided to order an entire pizza for each of her children and she would split one with her husband. The pizza restaurant charged $10.00 per pizza and $1.00 per topping. She also needed to add a $5.00 tip.

Question: Including tip, how much would the pizza order cost?
Answer: Ruby was going to order 1 for her son, 1 for her daughter and 1 to share with her husband. So she needed to order 1+1+1 = <<1+1+1=3>>3 pizzas
Each pizza cost $10 and she was ordering 3 so that comes to 10*3 = $<<10*3=30.00>>30.00
She needed to order pepperoni, sausage, black olive and mushroom, which came to 4 toppings at $1.00 each so 4*1 = $<<4*1=4.00>>4.00 extra for toppings
The pizzas cost $30 and $4 for the toppings so the total costs of the pizzas came to 30+4 = $<<30+4=34.00>>34.00
She also had to add a $5.00 tip to her current order total of $34.00 so 5+34.00 = $<<5+34=39.00>>39.00 for the total order

Every Halloween one house in the neighborhood gives out toothbrushes instead of candy, so it always gets egged and covered in toilet paper.

Question: If the owner spends 15 seconds cleaning up each egg and 30 minutes cleaning up each roll of toilet paper, how long (in minutes) will they have to spend cleaning up 60 eggs and 7 rolls of toilet paper?
Answer: First find how many eggs per minute the owner can clean up: 60 seconds/minute / 15 seconds/egg = <<60/15=4>>4 eggs/minute
Then divide the total number of eggs by the number of eggs cleaned per minute to find how long the owner spends cleaning them up: 60 eggs / 4 eggs/minute = <<60/4=15>>15 minutes
Then find the total time the owner spends cleaning up toilet paper: 7 rolls * 30 minutes/roll = <<7*30=210>>210 minutes
Finally, add that amount to the egg cleaning time to find the total cleaning time: 210 minutes + 15 minutes = <<210+15=225>>225 minutes

Tina buys 3 12-packs of soda for a party. Including Tina, 6 people are at the party. Half of the people at the party have 3 sodas each, 2 of the people have 4 and 1 person has 5.

Question: How many sodas are left over when the party is over?
Answer: Tina buys 3 12-packs of soda, for 3*12= <<3*12=36>>36 sodas
6 people attend the party, so half of them is 6/2= <<6/2=3>>3 people
Each of those people drinks 3 sodas, so they drink 3*3=<<3*3=9>>9 sodas
Two people drink 4 sodas, which means they drink 2*4=<<4*2=8>>8 sodas
With one person drinking 5, that brings the total drank to 5+9+8=<<5+9+8=22>>22 sodas
As Tina started off with 36 sodas, that means there are 36-22=<<36-22=14>>14 sodas left

Brittany uses 1/4 ounce of shampoo to wash her hair every other day. She buys shampoo in 14-ounce bottles.

Question: How many bottles does she need to get her through a leap year?
Answer: A leap year is one day shorter than a regular year, so it is 365 – 1 = <<365-1=364>>364 days.
Brittany washes her hair every other day, so she will wash it 364 / 2 = <<364/2=182>>182 times in a leap year.
A bottle of shampoo lasts her 14 / 1 / 4 = 14 * 4 = 56 washes.
If she buys 3 bottles, she will only have enough for 56 * 3 = <<3*56=168>>168 washes.
If she buys 4 bottles, she will have enough for 56 * 4 = <<4*56=224>>224 washes.
Since 168 < 182 and 224 > 182, Brittany needs 4 bottles of shampoo to get her through a leap year.

A company is hosting a seminar.

Question: So far, 30 attendees from company A have been registered; company B has twice the number of attendees of company A; company C has 10 more attendees than company A; company D has 5 fewer attendees than company C. If a total of 185 attendees have registered, how many attendees who registered are not from either company A, B, C or D?
Answer: There are 30 x 2 = <<30*2=60>>60 attendees from company B.
Company C has 30 + 10 = <<30+10=40>>40 attendees.
Company D has 40 - 5 = <<40-5=35>>35 registered attendees.
So, the total attendees from company A, B, C, and D is 30 + 60 + 40 + 35 = <<30+60+40+35=165>>165.
Therefore there are 185 - 165 = <<185-165=20>>20 attendees that are not from companies A, B, C, or D.

Answer: First find how many ml of oil Mason adds by multiplying the volume of the bowl by the proportion filled with oil: 150 ml * 2/3 = <<150*2/3=100>>100 ml
Then repeat the process to find how many ml of vinegar he added: 150 ml * 1/3 = <<150*1/3=50>>50 ml
Now find the weight of the oil by multiplying the volume by the weight/volume ratio: 100 ml * 5 g/ml = <<100*5=500>>500 g
Do the same procedure with the weight and weight/volume ratio of the vinegar to find its weight: 50 ml * 4 g/ml = <<50*4=200>>200 g
Now add the weight of the oil and the vinegar to find the weight of the salad dressing: 500 g + 200 g = <<500+200=700>>700 g

Juan bought T-shirts for his employees. He bought shirts for men and women. Women's t-shirts are $5 cheaper than men's t-shirts of the same color. His company has 2 sectors, one in white t-shirts and the other in black t-shirts. He paid $20 for white men's t-shirts and $18 for black men's t-shirts. The 2 sectors have the same number of men and women, with a total of 40 employees.

Question: How much did he spend total on buying t-shirts?
Answer: For each type of shirt, he needed to buy, 40 employees / 4 = <<40/4=10>>10 shirts.
White men's T-shirts cost $20/shirt * 10 shirts = $<<20*10=200>>200.
White women's T-shirts cost $5 less, or ($20/shirt - $5/shirt) * 10 shirts = $15/shirt * 10 shirts = $150.
Black men's t-shirts cost, $18/shirt * 10 shirts = $<<18*10=180>>180.
Black women's T-shirts cost $ 5 less, so ($18/shirt - $5/shirt) * 10 shirts = $13/shirt * 10 shirts = $<<(18-5)*10=130>>130.
Now add up all these quantities to find the total: $200 + $150 + $180 + $130 = $<<200+150+180+130=660>>660.

A shopkeeper bought 150 packets of milk. Each packet contained 250 ml of milk.

Question: If one fluid ounce is equal to 30 ml, how many ounces of milk did he buy?
Answer: If the shopkeeper bought 150 packets of milk, each packet containing 250ml of milk, all the packets had a total of 250*150 =<<150*250=37500>>37500ml
Since one ounce equal 30 ml, the total amount of milk that the shopkeeper bought in oz is 37500/30=<<37500/30=1250>>1250 oz of milk
