Lorenzo put three full cans of thumbtacks into his pocket and went off to work at the corkboard factory. It was Lorenzo's job, as head of quality control, to test every cork board for its ability to hold thumbtacks. He placed one thumbtack from each of the three cans of thumbtacks into every board tested. At the end of the day, he had tested 120 boards and had 30 tacks remaining in each of the three cans.

Question: What was the total combined number of thumbtacks from the three full cans?
Answer: At the end of the day, he had tested 120 boards, each with three tacks, for a total of 3*120=<<120*3=360>>360 tacks
He had 30 tacks remaining in each of the three cans, for an additional 3*30=<<3*30=90>>90 thumbs tacks.
Therefore, the original total combined number of thumbtacks in the three full cans of thumbtacks was 360+90=<<360+90=450>>450 thumbtacks.

Janice adds 2 tablespoons of koolaid power and 16 tablespoons of water to a jug. She leaves it out long enough for 4 tablespoons of water to evaporate. Then she quadruples the amount of water in the jug.

Question: What percentage of the liquid in the jug is koolaid powder?
Answer: First find how many tablespoons of water are left after the evaporation: 16 tbs - 4 tbs = <<16-4=12>>12 tbs
Then multiply this number by 4 to find how much water is in the jug after Janice refills it: 12 tbs * 4 = <<12*4=48>>48 tbs
Now add the 2 tablespoons of koolaid powder to find the total volume of the liquid in the jug: 48 tbs + 2 tbs = <<48+2=50>>50 tbs
Now divide the volume of the koolaid powder by the total volume and multiply by 100% to find the percentage of the liquid that's koolaid: 2 tbs / 50 tbs * 100% = 4%

Out of the 200 cookies that Javier baked from the recipe he learned online, his wife took 30%, and his daughter took 40 from the remaining cookies.

Question: If he ate half of the remaining cookies, how many cookies did they not eat?
Answer: From the 200 cookies, Javier's wife ate 30/100*200 = <<30/100*200=60>>60
After the wife ate 60 cookies, the number of cookies that remained was 200-60 = <<200-60=140>>140
The daughter also ate 40 cookies leaving 140-40 = <<140-40=100>>100 cookies.
If Javier ate half of the remaining cookies, he ate 1/2*100 = 50.
The number of cookies that remained is 100-50 = <<100-50=50>>50

A hot dog stand sells 10 hot dogs every hour, each one selling for $2.

Question: How many hours does the stand need to run to make $200 in sales?
Answer: First, we find out how much in sales the stand makes each hour by multiplying the number of hot dogs sold by the sales price, finding that 2*10=<<2*10=20>>20 dollars in sales each hour.
Then we divide the sales goal for the day by the sales per hour, finding that the stand needs to be open for 200/20= <<200/20=10>>10 hours to hit its sales goal.

To pass the time while she is waiting somewhere Carla likes to count things around her. While she is waiting for school to start on Monday she counts the tiles on the ceiling--38. While she is waiting for everyone to finish their tests after she has handed in hers, she counts the books in the room--75. On Tuesday Carla counts all the tiles twice in a row and she counts the books three times in a row when she has to wait for a long time for the teacher to finish handing out the graded tests.

Question: If every time Carla counts something counts as once, how many times has Carla counted something on Tuesday?
Answer: When Carla was waiting on Monday she counted 38 ceiling tiles and on Tuesday she counted them twice, 38 ceiling tiles x 2 = <<38*2=76>>76 times she counted a ceiling tile.
She also counted 75 books in the room on Monday and counted them three times in a row on Tuesday, 75 books x 3 = <<75*3=225>>225 times she counted a book.
On Tuesday Carla counted the ceiling tiles 76 times + counted books 225 times = <<76+225=301>>301 times Carla counted something on Tuesday.

Martha is making centerpieces for her Thanksgiving dinner. There are six centerpieces, and each centerpiece uses 8 roses, twice as many orchids as roses, and a certain number of lilies.

Question: If Martha wants to spend $2700 total, and each flower costs $15, how many lilies will she put in each centerpiece?
Answer: First figure out how many total flowers Martha is going to buy by dividing her total spending by the price per flower: $2700 / $15/flower = <<2700/15=180>>180 flowers
Now figure out how many flowers are in each centerpiece by dividing the total number of flowers by the number of centerpieces: 180 flowers / 6 centerpieces = <<180/6=30>>30 flowers / centerpiece
Now figure out how many orchids are in each centerpiece by multiplying the number of roses per centerpiece by 2: 8 roses/centerpiece * 2 = <<8*2=16>>16 orchids/centerpiece
Now subtract the number of roses and orchids per centerpiece from the total number of flowers per centerpiece to find the number of lilies per centerpiece: 30 flowers - 16 orchids - 8 roses = <<30-16-8=6>>6 lilies

Nine hundred tickets were sold to a concert. Three-fourths of those who bought the ticket came before the start of the concert. Five-ninths of the remaining came few minutes after the first song. Eighty people arrived during the middle part of the concert while the rest did not go.

Question: How many of those who bought the tickets did not go?
Answer: 900 x 3/4 = <<900*3/4=675>>675 people came before the start of the concert.
900 - 675 = <<900-675=225>>225 people did not come before the start of the concert.
225 x 5/9 = <<225*5/9=125>>125 people came few minutes after the first song.
So, 125 + 80 = <<125+80=205>>205 people came to the concert that was not able to be at the start of the concert.
Therefore, 225 - 205 = <<225-205=20>>20 people did not go to the concert.

Gina had $400. She gave 1/4 of her money to her mom,  used 1/8  of her money to buy clothes,  gave 1/5 of her money to a charity,  and kept the remaining money.

Question: How much did Gina keep?
Answer: Gina's mom received 1/4 x $400 = $<<1/4*400=100>>100.
She used 1/8 x $400 = $<<1/8*400=50>>50 to buy clothes.
She gave 1/5 x $400 = $<<1/5*400=80>>80 to a charity.
Thus, she spent a total of $100 + $50 + $80 = $<<100+50+80=230>>230.
Therefore, Gina kept $400 - $230 = $<<400-230=170>>170.

Roman the Tavernmaster has $20 worth of gold coins. He sells 3 gold coins to Dorothy. After she pays him, he has $12.

Question: How many gold coins does Roman have left?
Answer: Dorothy paid $12 for 3 gold coins so each gold coin is worth $12/3 = $<<12/3=4>>4
The Tavern master originally had $20 worth of gold coins which is $20/$4 = <<20/4=5>>5 gold coins
He gave 3 out of 5 gold coins to Dorothy so he now has 5-3 = <<5-3=2>>2 gold coins left

Annie is a mother of 3 children: Mark, Matt, and Mike. She decided to give them some fruits. Mike received 3 oranges. Matt got twice as many apples, and Mark got as many bananas as Mike and Matt received fruits altogether.

Question: How many fruits do the three children have in total?
Answer: Mike received 3 oranges.
Matt received twice as many apples as Mike received oranges, so he got 3 * 2 = <<3*2=6>>6 apples.
Mark received 6 + 3 = <<6+3=9>>9 bananas.
So in total, all children received 3 + 6 + 9 = <<3+6+9=18>>18 fruits.

Barbara asked the butcher for 4 1/2 pound steaks that cost $15.00/pound. She also asked for a pound and half of chicken breasts that were $8.00 a pound.

Question: How much did she spend at the butchers?
Answer: She ordered 4 1/2 pound steaks so that's 4*.5 = <<4*.5=2>>2 pounds of steak.
The steak cost $15.00 a pound and she bought 2 pounds so that's 15*2 = $<<15*2=30.00>>30.00 for 4 steaks.
She also needed 1.5 pounds of chicken breasts at $8.00 a pound so that's 1.5*8 = $<<1.5*8=12.00>>12.00 for chicken.
The steaks cost $30.00 and the chicken cost $12.00 for a total of 30+12 = $<<30+12=42.00>>42.00 spent at the butchers.

Viggo's age was 10 years more than twice his younger brother's age when his brother was 2.

Question: If his younger brother is currently 10 years old, what's the sum of theirs ages?
Answer: Twice Viggo's younger brother's age when his brother was 2 is 2*2 = <<2*2=4>>4 years.
If Viggo's age was 10 more than twice his younger brother's age when his brother was 2, Viggo was 10+4 = 14 years old.
Viggo is 14 years - 2 years = <<14-2=12>>12 years older than his brother
Since Viggo's brother is currently 10 and Vigo is 12 years older, he's currently 10 + 12 = <<10+12=22>>22 years old
Their combined age is 22 years + 10 years = <<22+10=32>>32 years

Ben starts each day with $50, spends $15 every day and saves the rest. After a few days, his mom doubled his total savings and his dad gave him an additional $10.

Question: If he now has $500, How many days have elapsed?
Answer: Let the number of days be x
He saves $50-$15=$<<50-15=35>>35 each day
After x days he had saved $35*x=$35x
His mom doubled his savings to give $35x*2=$70x
His dad added $10 to give $70x+$10=$500
Subtracting 10 from both sides of the equation formed gives $70x=490
Dividing both sides by $70 give x=7 days

Perry, Dana, Charlie, and Phil played golf together every week. At the end of the season, Perry had won five more games than Dana, but Charlie had won 2 games fewer than Dana. Phil had won 3 games more than Charlie did.

Question: If Phil won a total of 12 games, how many more games did Perry win than did Phil?
Answer: If Phil had won 3 games more than did Charlie, and Phil won 12 games, then Charlie won 12-3=<<12-3=9>>9 games.
If Charlie had won 2 games fewer than Dana, and Charlie won 9 games, then Dana won 9+2=<<9+2=11>>11 games.
If Perry had won five more games than did Dana, and Dana won 11 games, then Perry won 11+5=<<11+5=16>>16 games.
Thus, Perry won 16-12=<<16-12=4>>4 more games than did Phil.

Jill spends time every day talking to her boyfriend on the phone. The first day of the week she spends 5 minutes on the phone with her boyfriend. Each of the following days she spends twice as much time talking on the phone as the day before. After the 5th day her parents take the phone away from her because she was on it too long.

Question: How much time did Jill spend talking to her boyfriend that week?
Answer: Jill starts off spending 5 minutes on the phone, and the following day she spends double that 5 minutes for 5*2=<<5+5=10>>10 minutes.
The following day Jill spends double the previous day's total of 10 minutes on the phone, for 10*2=<<10*2=20>>20 minutes.
On the fourth day, Jill spends double the previous day's total of 20 minutes on the phone, for 20*2=<<20*2=40>>40 minutes
On the fifth and final day, Jill spends double the previous day's total of 40 minutes on the phone, for 40*2=<<40*2=80>>80 minutes.
All told, Jill spends 5+10+20+40+80= <<5+10+20+40+80=155>>155 minutes on the phone over 5 days.

A printing press is printing brochures. The press prints 20 single-page spreads, and twice as many double-page spreads. For each 4 pages printed for the spreads, the press prints a block of 4 ads, each of which take up a quarter of a page. The brochures can be arranged in any order as long as they are made up of 5 pages each.

Question: How many brochures is the printing press creating?
Answer: There are a total of 20 single-page spreads * 2 = <<20*2=40>>40 double-page spreads.
As these are made up of 2 pages each, there are 40 double-page spreads * 2 pages = <<40*2=80>>80 pages in the double-page spreads.
In total, there are 20 single-pages + 80 double-pages = <<20+80=100>>100 pages in the spreads.
A block of ads is printed every 4 pages, so there will be 100 pages / 4 pages/block = <<100/4=25>>25 blocks of ads.
This is a total of 25 blocks * 4 ads = <<25*4=100>>100 ads.
As each ad takes up a quarter of a page, this must create an additional 100 ads * 0.25 = <<100*0.25=25>>25 pages.
Therefore, the press has printed 100 pages from the spreads + 25 pages of ads = <<100+25=125>>125 pages.
Since brochures are made up of 5 pages each, this creates a total of 125 pages / 5 = <<125/5=25>>25 brochures.

Max works for a delivery company as a courier. During one working day, he can deliver a maximum of 35 packages. One week, Max delivered the maximum number of packages, only twice. On two other days, Max unloaded a total of 50 packages, and on one day he unloaded only one-seventh of the maximum possible daily performance. On the last two days, the sum of the packages transported was only fourth-fifth of the maximum daily performance.

Question: How many more packages could Max deliver during that week, if he would work at maximum performance?
Answer: Max can deliver a maximum of 35 * 7 = <<35*7=245>>245 packages in one week.
For two days Max has carried the maximum number of packages, which in total means 2 * 35 = <<2*35=70>>70 packages.
One day Max has carried only 1/7 of the maximum capacity, that is 1/7 * 35 = <<1/7*35=5>>5 packages.
On two other days, Max delivered only 4/5 * 35 = <<4/5*35=28>>28 packages.
That means, Max could deliver 245 - 28 - 5 - 70 - 50 = <<245-28-5-70-50=92>>92 more packages.

Answer: He will need 300 ounces of water because 100 x 3 = <<100*3=300>>300
He will need 6 bottles because 300 / 50 = <<300/50=6>>6
This will cost $15 because 6 x 2.5 = <<6*2.5=15>>15
He has $20 because 2 x 10 = <<2*10=20>>20
He will get $5 in change because 20 - 15 = <<20-15=5>>5
