Answer this question:Granger went to the grocery store. He saw that the Spam is $3 per can, the peanut butter is $5 per jar, and the bread is $2 per loaf. If he bought 12 cans of spam, 3 jars of peanut butter, and 4 loaves of bread, how much is the total amount he paid?
The 12 cans of Spam costs $3 x 12 = $36. The total amount of 3 jars of peanut butter is $5 x 3 = $15. And the total amount of the 4 loaves of bread is $2 x 4 = $8. Therefore the total amount he will have to pay is $36 + $15 + $8 = $59.
The answer is 59.

Answer this question:Carolyn is planning out her final essay. The introduction will be 450 words, the conclusion will be triple the length of the introduction, and each of the four body sections will be the same length. If her essay has to be 5000 words total, how long is each section?
First find the length of the conclusion by tripling the length of the introduction: 450 words * 3 = 1350 words. Then subtract the length of the introduction and conclusion from the total length to find the combined length of the body sections: 5000 words - 1350 words - 450 words = 3200 words. Then divide the combined length of the body section by the number of body sections to find the length of each section: 3200 words / 4 sections = 800 words / section.
The answer is 800.

Answer this question:Mike wants to buy a new car. He has chosen a red car for $35000. To be able to pay this price, he needs to loan part of the money from the bank, at a rate of 15%. How much money in total will Mike need to pay for the car, if he has to take $20000 from the bank?
The rate of the loan is 15%, which means Mike needs to give the bank an additional 20000 * 15 / 100 = $3000. So the car will cost him 35000 + 3000 = $38000.
The answer is 38000.
