Q: John decides to get gym memberships so he can get in shape. The gym close to his house is close but doesn't have everything he wants so he gets two different gym memberships. The cheap one costs $10 a month and has a sign-up fee of $50. The second gym is 3 times more expensive and it has a sign-up fee of 4 months membership. How much total did he pay in the first year for gym membership?
A: The cheap gym cost 10 * 12 = $120 for monthly fees. So the total cost was 120 + 50 = $170. The more expensive gym cost 3 * 10 = $30 per month. That means the sign - up fee was 30 * 4 = $120. The monthly fees for the expensive gym comes out to 30 * 12 = $360 per year. So the total cost for the expensive gym was 360 + 120 = $480. So his total cost was 480 + 170 = $650. The answer is 650.
Question: Ivan has 20 dice. Jerry has twice as many dice as Ivan. How many dice do they have altogether?
Answer: Jerry has 2 x 20 = 40 dice. Therefore, they have 20 + 40 = 60 dice altogether. The answer is 60.
[Question]John hits 70% of his free throws. For every foul he gets 2 shots. He gets fouled 5 times a game. How many free throws does he get if he plays in 80% of the 20 games the team plays?
[Answer]John plays in 20 * .8 = 16 games. That means he gets fouled 16 * 5 = 80 fouls. So he gets 80 * 2 = 160 foul shots. So he makes 160 * .7 = 112 free throws. The answer is 112.
Q: Kennedy's house is 600 square feet larger than 4 times Benedict's house. If Kennedy's house is 10000 square feet, how many square feet is Benedict's house?
A: Let the number of square feet in Benedict's house be x. So, we can write the equation 4 * x + 600 = 10000. Subtracting 600 from both sides we get 4 * x = 9400. Dividing both sides by 4 we get x = 2350 square feet. The answer is 2350.
Question: The Rotary Club is holding its annual fundraising Omelet Breakfast, with tickets sold in advance. The tickets come in different price levels, for young children, older children, adults, and seniors. This year they sold 53 small children tickets, 35 older children tickets, 75 adult tickets, and 37 senior tickets. To figure out how many eggs they need to buy, the club estimates that small children can eat a half omelet, older children can eat a whole omelet, adults will eat two omelets, and seniors will eat one and a half omelets. Just to be on the safe side, they get enough eggs to make 25 extra omelets. If they use 2 eggs for each omelet, how many eggs will they need to buy?
Answer: They'll need to make an estimated 0.5 * 53 = 26.5 omelets for small children. They'll need to make an estimated 1 * 35 = 35 omelets for older children. They'll need to make an estimated 2 * 75 = 150 omelets for the adults. And they'll need to make an estimated 1.5 * 37 = 55.5 omelets for the seniors. Along with the 25 extra omelets they'll make as a buffer, they will need enough eggs for 26.5 + 35 + 150 + 55.5 + 25 = 292 omelets. So they will need 2 * 292 = 584 eggs. The answer is 584.
Q: Rosie runs 6 miles per hour. She runs for 1 hour on Monday, 30 minutes on Tuesday, 1 hour on Wednesday, and 20 minutes on Thursday. If she wants to run 20 miles for the week, how many minutes should she run on Friday?
A:
On Monday and Wednesday, Rosie runs 6 * 1 = 6 miles. On Tuesday, Rosie runs 6 * (30 minutes / 60 minutes) = 3 miles. On Thursday, Rosie runs 6 * (20 minutes / 60 minutes) = 2 miles. So far this week Rosie has run 6 + 3 + 6 + 2 = 17 miles. To reach her goal, she must run 20 - 17 = 3 miles on Friday. Thus, she should run for 6 / 3 = .5 hour which is 30 minutes. The answer is 30.
