Q: To try to get the class to eat more vegetables, the teacher says that she will start giving them good character points that the class can redeem for a movie day if they earn enough. The students need to earn 200 points to win the movie day. Each time a student eats their vegetables at lunch she gives the student 2 points. There are 25 students in the class. If they have two school weeks, otherwise known as 10 days to win the movie, what is the average number of vegetables each student must eat per school week to get a movie day?
A: The students need eat 100 vegetables in total because 200 / 2 = 100. Each student needs to eat on average 4 vegetables because 100 / 25 = 4. Each student needs to eat 2 vegetables per school week because 4 / 2 = 2. The answer is 2.
Question: Kylie makes 10 beaded necklaces on Monday and 2 beaded necklaces on Tuesday. Then Kylie makes 5 beaded bracelets and 7 beaded earrings on Wednesday. 20 beads are needed to make one beaded necklace. 10 beads are needed to make one beaded bracelet. 5 beads are needed to make one beaded earring.

Q: Christy and her friend Tanya go to Target to buy some face moisturizer and body lotions. Christy spends twice as much as Tanya, who pays 50$ for two face moisturizers each and 60$ per body lotion, buying four of them. How much money did they spend together in total?
A: The total amount Tanya spent on face moisturizers is 50 * 2 = $100. If she bought four body lotions, the total cost is 4 * 60 = $240. Tanya spent a total of 240 + 100 = $340 in the store. If Christy spent twice this amount, the total was 2 * 340 = $ 680. The total amount of money they both spent is 680 + 340 = 1020$. The answer is 1020.
Question: There were 60 women at the party, and three-fourths of these women were married and brought their husbands with them to the party. If 3/4 of the men at the party were single, how many people attended the party?
Answer:
60 x 3 / 4 = 45 females are married which means there are also 45 married males. If 1 / 4 of the men are married, which represents 45 men, then 4 * 45 = 180 is the total number of men who attended the party. Thus, there are a total of 60 women and 180 men, or a total of 60 + 180 = 240 people at the party. The answer is 240.
