Answer this question:Mr. Resty has two identical 4-story buildings. The first floor has 2 apartment units while the rest of the floors have 5 apartment units on each floor. How many apartment units does Mr. Resty have in all?
In one building, there are 4 - 1 = 3 floors that have 5 apartment units each. Mr. Resty has a total of 3 floors x 5 units = 15 apartment units from the 2nd to 4th floor in one building. So, in one building, there are a total of 15 + 2 = 17 apartment units. Therefore, Mr. Resty has a total of 17 x 2 = 34 apartment units in his 2 buildings.
The answer is 34.

Answer this question:On Monday, a restaurant sells forty dinners. On Tuesday, it sells 40 more dinners than it did Monday. On Wednesday, it sells half the amount of dinners it sold on Tuesday. On Thursday they changed their recipe, and then sold 3 more dinners than they did on Wednesday. How many dinners were sold in those 4 days?
On Tuesday the restaurant sells 40 + 40 = 80 dinners. On Wednesday the restaurant sells 80 / 2 = 40 dinners. On Thursday the restaurant sells 40 + 3 = 43 dinners. In those 4 days, the restaurant sells a total of 40 + 80 + 40 + 43 = 203 dinners.
The answer is 203.

Answer this question:Grant spends $200.00 a year to have the newspaper delivered daily to his house. Juanita buys the newspaper daily. Monday through Saturday, she spends $0.50 and on Sunday she spends $2.00. How much more money does Juanita spend buying the newspaper yearly than Grant?
Monday through Saturday Juanita buys the paper for $0.50 so that's 6 * $0.50 = $3.00. She spends $2.00 for Sunday and $3.00 for the other 6 days so she spends $2 + $3 = $5.00 for the newspaper weekly. Over 52 weeks she spends 52 * $5 = $260.00. Juanita spends $260.00 on the newspaper for the year and Grants spends $200.00 a year so Juanita spends $260 - $200 = $60.00 more.
The answer is 60.

Answer this question:Tina is getting $20 for each book she sells. If she realizes a $120 profit on her sales, how many people have she sold the books to if each book costs $5 to make and every customer buys 2 at a time?
First, we need to determine the profit per book. To do this, we perform 20 - 5 = 15 dollars in profit per book. Next, we divide the total sales by the profit per book, performing 120 / 15 = 8 books sold in total. Since the books are sold 2 at a time, we divide the number sold by 2 to find the total number of people sold to, performing 8 / 2 = 4 people in total.
The answer is 4.
