Andrew works in a company that provides a generous vacation allotment: for every 10 days worked, you get 1 vacation day.

Question: If last year Andrew worked 300 days and took 5 days off in March and twice as many in September, how many more vacation days can Andrew still take?
Answer: If for every 10 days worked Andrew earns 1 day of vacation, then over 300 days worked he would have earned 300/10=<<300/10=30>>30 days of vacation
We know he took 5 days off in March and that in September twice as much. That means in September he took 5*2=<<5*2=10>>10 days off
In total, Andrew has used 5 vacation days in March and another 10 in September. Therefore, he has used 5+10=<<5+10=15>>15 vacation days
If Andrew earned 30 days of vacation but has only used 15, then he can still take another 30-15=<<30-15=15>>15 days off

Daria just got a new credit card so she could buy some furniture. Daria has $500 saved ready to pay for the furniture she buys, but the rest of the money will have to stay on her credit card statement until the next month, when she can pay it off with interest. She bought a couch for $750, a table for $100 and a lamp for $50.

Question: After she pays the initial $500, how much does she still owe before interest?
Answer: Daria spends $750 + $100 + $50 on furniture = $<<750+100+50=900>>900 total on furniture.
Of that $900 she spent, she can pay $500 now, so $900 - $500 = $<<900-500=400>>400 that Daria still owes.

A pair of dogs are barking back and forth at each other from across the street. The poodle barks twice for every one time the terrier barks. The terrier’s owner hushes it every second time it barks. She has to say “hush” six times before the dogs stopped barking.

Question: How many times did the poodle bark?
Answer: The terrier barked twice as many times as it was told to hush, so it barked 6 * 2 = <<6*2=12>>12 times.
The poodle barked two times for every terrier bark, so it barked 12 * 2 = <<12*2=24>>24 times.

Bryan bought three different bottles of milk. The bottles contain the following volumes of milk: 2 liters, 750 milliliters, 250 milliliters.

Question: How many liters of milk did Bryan buy in total?
Answer: Bryan bought a total of 750 + 250 = <<750+250=1000>>1000 milliliters of milk from the two smaller bottles.
Since 1 liter is equal to 1000 milliliters, then 1000 milliliters is equal to 1000/1000 = <<1000/1000=1>>1 liter.
Therefore, Bryan bought a total of 2 + 1 = <<2+1=3>>3 liters of milk.

Jacque arrived in France and his suitcase weighed 5 pounds. While in France, he picked up 5 bottles of perfume that weighed 1.2 ounces each, 4 pounds of chocolate, 2 bars of soap that weighed 5 ounces each and 2 jars of jam that weighed 8 ounces each.

Question: Considering 16 ounces is the same as 1 pound, how much did Jacque's suitcase weigh on the return flight home?
Answer: He bought 5 bottles of perfume that weighed 1.2 oz each so they weighed 5*1.2 = <<5*1.2=6>>6 oz
2 bars of soap weighed 5 oz each so they weighed 2*5 = <<2*5=10>>10 oz
2 jars of jam weighed 8 oz each so they weighed 2*8 = <<8*2=16>>16 oz
The perfume is 6 oz, the soap is 10 oz and the jam is 16 oz for a total of 6+10+16 = <<6+10+16=32>>32 oz
16 oz is 1 pound, and he had 32 oz in products so he had 32/16 = <<32/16=2>>2 pounds of products
His suitcase weighed 5 pounds, and the chocolate weighed 4 pounds and the remaining products weighed 2 pounds so his suitcase weighed 5+4+2 = <<5+4+2=11>>11 pounds

A certain store sells computer accessories and equipment. Due to a fire outbreak in one of the factories, the price of RAM increased by 30%. After two years, the price stabilized and finally fell by 20% from what it has risen.

Question: What is the current price of RAM if it was $50 before the fire?
Answer: After the fire outbreak, the price of RAM got increased by 30/100 * 50 = $<<30/100*50=15>>15.
So before stabilization the price was at 50 + 15 = $<<50+15=65>>65.
After the stabilization, the price fell by 20% from $65, so it fell by 20/100 * 65 = $<<20/100*65=13>>13.
That means the RAM is currently at 65 - 13 = $<<65-13=52>>52.

At the museum, Bethany saw 4 times more still lifes than portraits.

Question: If she saw 80 paintings total, how many portraits did she see?
Answer: Let s be the number of still lifes Bethany saw and p be the number of portraits. We know that s + p = 80 and s = 4p.
Substituting the second equation into the first equation, we get 4p + p = 80
Combining like terms, we get 5p = 80
Dividing both sides by 5, we get p = 16

The price of electricity went up by 25%. John's old computer used 800 watts and his new computer uses 50% more.

Question: If the old price of electricity was 12 cents per kilowatt-hour, how much does his computer cost, in dollars, to run for 50 hours?
Answer: His new computer uses 800*.5=<<800*.5=400>>400 watts more than his old computer
So it users 800+400=<<800+400=1200>>1200 watts
That is 1200/1000=<<1200/1000=1.2>>1.2 kw
Electricity cost 12*.25=<<12*.25=3>>3 cents more than it used to
So it now cost 12+3=<<12+3=15>>15 cents per kwh
He used 1.2*50=<<1.2*50=60>>60 kwh
So he paid 15*60=<<900=900>>900 cents per kwh
So he paid 900/100=$<<900/100=9>>9

Lara is a contestant on a fun game show where she needs to navigate an inflated bouncy house obstacle course. First she needs to carry a backpack full of treasure through the obstacle course and set it down on the other side, which she does in 7 minutes and 23 seconds. Second, she needs to crank open the door to the obstacle course so she can go back through, which takes her 73 seconds. After she gets through the door she traverses the obstacle course again and makes it out faster without the backpack, in 5 minutes and 58 seconds.

Question: How many seconds total does it take her to complete the obstacle course?
Answer: It takes Lara 7 minutes and 23 seconds to make it through the obstacle course the first time. 7 minutes x 60 seconds per minute = 420 seconds + 23 seconds = <<7*60+23=443>>443 seconds to get through the first part of the obstacle course.
The second stage of the obstacle course she completes in 73 seconds + 443 seconds = <<73+443=516>>516 seconds.
It takes 5 minutes and 58 seconds for Lara to get through the obstacle course the second time. 5 minutes x 60 seconds per minute = 300 + 58 seconds = <<300+58=358>>358 seconds.
Combined, it takes Lara 516 + 358 seconds = <<516+358=874>>874 seconds for Lara to run the whole obstacle course.

Mike is feeding the birds at the park. He counts out the seeds as he throws them. He throws 20 seeds to the birds on the left. He throws twice as much to the bigger group of birds on the right. Some more birds flutter over to join the others for lunch and Mike throws 30 more seeds for them.

Question: If Mike has 30 seeds left to feed the last of the birds, how many seeds did Mike start with?
Answer: Mike started by throwing 20 seeds to the birds and then threw twice as many, 20 + 20(2) = 20 + 40.
That totals to 20 + 40 = <<20+40=60>>60 seeds.
He also threw 30 other seeds and had 30 left over, which means he started with 60 + 30 + 30 = <<60+30+30=120>>120 seeds.

So he can finish 1 puzzle in 2000*.1=<<2000*.1=200>>200 minutes
So these two puzzles take 200*2=<<200*2=400>>400 minutes

The population of Mojave was 4000 a decade ago.

Question: If the town's population has increased three times, and the population analysis firm predicts that it will increase by 40% after five years, how many people will be in Mojave in five years?
Answer: Since the population of Mojave has increased three times the number it was a decade ago, there are 3*4000 = <<3*4000=12000>>12000 people in Mojave now.
It's predicted that the population will increase by 40/100*12000 = <<40/100*12000=4800>>4800 people after five years.
This means there will be 12000+4800 = <<12000+4800=16800>>16800 people living in Mojave in five years.
