Q: Josue planted a tree in his backyard that grows at the rate of 2 feet per week. If the tree is currently 10 feet tall, what would be the tree's total height after 4 months (assuming each month is 4 weeks long)?
A: Since a month has four weeks, the tree will increase its height by 2 feet for 4 * 4 = 16 weeks after four months of growing. Since the tree grows at 2 feet per week, after 16 weeks, the tree would have increased its height by 2 * 16 = 32 feet. If the tree is currently 10 feet tall, its height after four months will be 10 + 32 = 42 feet. The answer is 42.
Question: A tree on a farm has 10 branches. Each branch has 40 sub-branches with 60 leaves each. If the total number of trees on the farm is 4 and they have the same number of leaves, calculate the total number of leaves on all the trees.
Answer: If the tree's 10 branches have 40 sub - branches each, the total number of sub - branches on the tree is 10 * 40 = 400. Since each sub - branch has 60 leaves, the tree has 60 * 400 = 24000 leaves. If there are four trees on the farm with the same number of leaves, they all have 24000 * 4 = 96000 leaves. The answer is 96000.
[Question]Noah, who loves his Grammy, calls her every week to talk about his day. If each call lasts 30 minutes and he is charged $0.05 per call minute, how much would he be billed if he makes the calls for a year?
[Answer]A year has 52 weeks, so if he talks for 30 minutes every week, the total number of call hours is 52 * 30 = 1560 minutes. Since he is charged 0.05 cents per call, the total cost is 1560 * .05 = 78 dollars. The answer is 78.
Q: Hillary's teacher assigned 1 hour of reading during the weekend. On Friday night, Hillary read for 16 minutes. On Saturday she read for 28 minutes. How many minutes does Hillary have to read on Sunday to complete the assignment?
A: Hillary needs to read for 1 hour which equals 60 minutes. Hillary has read for a total of 16 minutes + 28 = 44 minutes so far. Hillary will need to read for 60 minutes - 44 = 16 minutes on Sunday. The answer is 16.
Question: At Palm Meadows, there are 13 hotel rooms. Eight of the rooms have two beds in them and the rest have three beds. How many beds are there in total?
Answer: There are 13 - 8 = 5 rooms with three beds. There are 5 * 3 = 15 beds for those hotel rooms that have three beds in them. There are 8 * 2 = 16 beds for those hotel rooms that have two beds in them. There are 15 + 16 = 31 beds in total. The answer is 31.
Q: Scott wants to make and freeze a large batch of ratatouille. At the farmers' market he buys 5 pounds of eggplants and 4 pounds of zucchini at $2.00 a pound. He needs 4 pounds of tomatoes that are $3.50 a pound. The onions are $1.00 a pound and he needs 3 pounds. Then he needs a pound of basil which is sold for $2.50 per half pound. If this yields 4 quarts, how much does each quart cost?
A:
He buys 5 pounds of eggplants and 4 pounds of zucchini so he buys 5 + 4 = 9 pounds of produce. These 9 pounds are $2.00 a pound for a total of 9 * 2 = $18.00. He needs 4 pounds of tomatoes that are $3.50 a pound for a total of 4 * 3.50 = $14.00. He needs 3 pounds of onions that are $1.00 a pound so that's 3 * 1 = $3.00. The basil is sold by the half - pound and he needs a full pound so that's 2.50 * 2 = $5.00. The eggplants and zucchinis cost $18.00, the tomatoes are $14.00, the onions are $3.00 and the basil is $5.00 for a total of 18 + 14 + 3 + 5 = $40.00. This recipe makes 4 quarts and the total price of the vegetables was $40.00 so each quart costs 40 / 4 = $10.00. The answer is 10.
