Q: Jill is painting her 20 toenails and fingernails. She paints 6 of her nails purple, 8 of them blue, and the rest striped. What is the difference in percentage points between the percentage of nails painted blue and the percentage painted striped?
A: First find the total number of striped nails: 20 nails - 6 nails - 8 nails = 6 nails. Then divide the number of blue nails by the number of total nails and multiply by 100% to express the answer as a percentage: 8 blue nails / 20 total nails * 100% = 40%. Then divide the number of striped nails by the number of total nails and multiply by 100% to express the answer as a percentage: 6 striped nails / 20 total nails * 100% = 30%. Then subtract the percentage of striped nails from the percentage of blue nails to find the difference: 40% - 30% = 10%. The answer is 10.

Q: An airplane was flying from California to Virginia. The flight started with 124 passengers. They made a layover in Texas. 58 passengers got off and 24 got on. From there, they flew to North Carolina, where 47 people got off and 14 got on, before flying to Virginia. There were also a total of 10 crew members on board for the entire flight. How many people landed in Virginia?
A: They started with 124 passengers. 58 got off and 24 got on so 124 - 58 + 24 = 90. 90 people flew to NC where 47 passengers got off and 14 got on. This flight now had 90 - 47 + 14 = 57. There were also 10 crew members so 57 + 10 = 67 passengers landed in Virginia. The answer is 67.

Q: There are two babysitters named Mila and Agnes. Mila makes $10 an hour while Agnes makes $15 an hour. Agnes works 8 hours each week. How many hours does Mila need to work to earn as much as Agnes in a month?
A:
The weekly salary of Agnes is $15 x 8 = $120. So in a month, Agnes earns $120 x 4 = $480. Therefore, Mila needs to work for $480 / $10 = 48 hours to earn as much as Agnes's monthly earnings. The answer is 48.
