We have a question: Johnny is a dog walker. He can walk 3 dogs at once. He gets paid $15 for a 30-minute walk and $20 for a 60-minute walk. Johnny works for 4 hours per day. If he always walks the maximum number of dogs possible and 6 dogs have 60-minute walks per day, how much money does he make in a week where he works 5 days?
And an answer: 1500
So how you got the answer?
Johnny spends 6 / 3 = 2 hours walking the 6 dogs who have 60 - minute walks. He makes $20 * 6 = $120 for these walks. Thus, he has 4 - 2 = 2 hours = 120 minutes left to walk the other dogs. He can walk 3 * (120 / 30) = 12 dogs in this time. Thus, he will make $15 * 12 = $180 on these walks. In total per day, he makes $120 + $180 = $300 per day. Thus, during the week, he makes $300 * 5 = $1500.

We have a question: Alex is stacking his books in a pyramid. Each level of the pyramid has 80% as many books as the number of books in the previous level. If he makes four levels and the top level has 64 books, how many books are in the pyramid in total?
And an answer: 369
So how you got the answer?
The third level has 80 books because 64 / .8 = 80. The second level has 100 books because 80 / .8 = 100. The first level has 125 books because 100 / .8 = 125. In total there are 369 books because 64 + 80 + 100 + 125 = 369.

We have a question: At football tryouts, the coach wanted to see who could throw the ball the farthest. Parker threw the ball 16 yards. Grant threw the ball 25 percent farther than Parker and Kyle threw the ball 2 times farther than Grant. Compared to Parker, how much farther did Kyle throw the ball?
And an answer: 24
So how you got the answer?
Grant threw the ball 25% farther than Parker. If Parker threw the ball 16 yards, then Grant threw it 16 * .25 = 4 farther. In total, Grant threw the ball 16 + 4 = 20 yards. Kyle threw 2 times farther than Grant so Kyle threw the ball 2 * 20 = 40 yards. If Kyle threw the ball for 40 yards and Parker threw for 16 then Kyle threw the ball 40 - 16 = 24 yards farther.
