[Question]A Burmese python that was 1.4 meters long swallowed a 50-centimeter alligator. After one week, the alligator was completely digested. If this snake continues to eat 50-centimeter-long alligators at a constant rate of one alligator per week, what is the maximum number of alligators that the snake can eat in 616 days?
[Answer]Since one week is 7 days. 616 days is 616 / 7 = 88 weeks. Since the python eats 1 alligator per week, in 88 weeks it can eat 88 / 1 = 88 alligators. The answer is 88.
Q: Derek has $40. He spends $14 on lunch for himself, $11 for lunch for his dad, and $5 on more lunch for himself. His brother Dave has $50 and only spends $7 on lunch for his mom. How much more money does Dave have left than Derek?
A: Derek has 40 - 14 - 11 - 5 = 10 dollars left. Dave has 50 - 7 = 43 dollars left. Dave has 43 - 10 = 33 more dollars left than Derek. The answer is 33.
Question: Hugh had eight pounds of candy, Tommy had six pounds of candy, and Melany had seven pounds of candy. If they share the candy equally, how much will each person have?
Answer: Hugh and Tommy have a total of 8 + 6 = 14 candies. Since Melany also has seven candies, they have 14 + 7 = 21 candies. If they combine and share the candies equally, each person will get 21 / 3 = 7 candies. The answer is 7.
[Question]A factory produces 90 refrigerators per hour. It also produces 70 more coolers than refrigerators per hour. How many products did the factory produce for 5 days if it works 9 hours a day?
[Answer]The factory produces 90 + 70 = 160 coolers per hour. The factory works 5 * 9 = 45 hours in 5 days. The factory produces ( 90 + 160) * 45 = 11250 products for 5 days. The answer is 11250.
Q: Every tree that Bart cuts down gives him 75 pieces of firewood. If he burns 5 logs a day from November 1 through February 28, how many trees will he need to cut down?
A: November has 30 days, December has 31 days, January has 31 days and February has 28 days for a total of 30 + 31 + 31 + 28 = 120 days. He burns 5 pieces of wood every day so 120 * 5 = 600 pieces of wood. Every tree he cuts down supplies 75 pieces of firewood and he will burn 600 pieces so he needs 600 / 75 = 8 trees. The answer is 8.
Question: Kyle bikes for 2 hours to work every day. Ten times the time he takes to travel to work and back is the same as the cost of buying a pack of snacks (in dollars). How much will Ryan pay, in dollars, to buy 50 packs of snacks?
Answer:
A round trip to work and back takes 2 * 2 = 4 hours. Ten times the time Kyle takes to travel to work and back is the same as the cost of buying a pack of snacks, meaning the packs are sold at 4 * 10 = $40 each. Ryan will pay $40 * 50 = $2000 to buy 50 packs of snacks?. The answer is 2000.
