Q: There are 920 deer in a park. 10% of the deer have 8 antlers, and a quarter of that number also have albino fur. How many albino 8-antlered deer are there?
A: First find how many deer have 8 antlers: 920 deer * 10% = 92 deer. Then divide that number by 4 to find how many deer meet both criteria: 92 deer / 4 = 23 deer. The answer is 23.
Question: When Diane turns 30, she will be half the age of Alex and twice as old as Allison. Diane is 16 years old now. What is the sum of the ages of Alex and Allison now?
Answer: When Dianne turns 30, Alex will be 30 x 2 = 60 years old. Allison will be 30 / 2 = 15 years old then. Dianne will turn 30 in 30 - 16 = 14 years. Currently, the age of Alex is 60 - 14 = 46. Currently, Allison is 15 - 14 = 1 year old. So, the sum of Alex and Allison's ages now is 46 + 1 = 47 years old. The answer is 47.

Q: 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. How much fluid does he drink a week?
A: He drinks 16 / 4 = 4 of the small bottles each day. That is 4 * 16 = 64 ounces. The larger bottles are 16 * .25 = 4 ounces larger. So the large bottles are 16 + 4 = 20 ounces. So he drinks 20 * 2 = 40 ounces of those a day. So he drinks 64 + 40 = 104 ounces a day. That means he drinks 104 * 7 = 728 ounces a day. The answer is 728.
Question: Three friends agreed to pay an equal amount of money for buying 5 bags of chips. If they each pay $5, how much does each bag of chips cost?

Q: James invests $2000 a week into his bank account. He had $250,000 in his account when the year started. At the end of the year, he gets a windfall that is worth 50% more than what he has in his bank account. How much money does he have?
A:
He deposited 2000 * 52 = $104,000 into his account. So he has 250000 + 104000 = $354,000. His windfall is worth .5 * 354,000 = $177,000 more than his current account. That means he got 177,000 + 354,000 = $531,000. So he had a total of 531,000 + 354,000 = $885,000. The answer is 885000.
