Q: For the family reunion, Peter is buying 16 pounds of bone-in chicken and half that amount in hamburgers. He's going to buy 2 more pounds of hot dogs than hamburgers. He's also going to buy several sides that will weigh half the amount of hot dogs. How many pounds of food will he buy?
A: He is buying 16 pounds of chicken and half that amount in hamburgers so he's buying 16 / 2 = 8 pounds of hamburgers. He's going to buy 2 more pounds of hotdogs than hamburgers, which are 8 pounds so he'll have 2 + 8 = 10 pounds of hot dogs. He's going to buy sides that weigh half the amount of the hot dogs so that's 10 / 2 = 5 pounds of sides. He's buying 16 pounds of chicken, 8 pounds of hamburgers, 10 pounds of hot dogs and 5 pounds of sides for a total of 16 + 8 + 10 + 5 = 39 pounds of food. The answer is 39.
Question: Eric sorted 150 colored pencils into 5 containers for his art class. Before class, another teacher brought him 30 more pencils. How many can he evenly distribute between the five containers now?
Answer: Before the extra colored pencils, he had 150 / 5 = 30 colored pencils in each container. With the other colored pencils, he is given he now has 150 + 30 = 180 colored pencils. If you distribute them evenly each container should have 180 / 5 = 36 colored pencils. The answer is 36.
[Question]A baker is comparing the day's sales to his daily average. He usually sells 20 pastries and 10 loaves of bread. Today, he sells 14 pastries and 25 loaves of bread. If pastries are sold for $2 and loaves of bread are sold for $4, what is the difference, in dollars, between the baker's daily average and total for today?
[Answer]The daily average sales of pastries amounts to 20 pastries * $2 / pastry = $40. The daily average sales of bread amounts to 10 loaves of bread * $4 / loaf = $40. Therefore, the daily average is $40 + $40 = $80. Today's sales of pastries amounts to 14 pastries * $2 / pastry = $28. Today's sales of loaves of bread amounts to 25 loaves of bread * $4 / loaf = $100. Therefore, today's sales amount to $28 + $100 = $128. This means the total difference between today's sales and the daily average is $128 $80 = $48. The answer is 48.
[Question]Samira is the assistant coach of a soccer team playing against one of the best teams in their league. She has four dozen water bottles filled with water in a box. In the first break of the match, the 11 players on the field each take two bottles of water from Samira's box, and at the end of the game, take one more bottle each. How many bottles of water are remaining in Samira's box?
[Answer]
If the box has four dozen bottles of water, there are 4 * 12 = 48 bottles of water in the box. After the first half, the 11 players take 11 * 2 = 22 bottles of water from the box. If they take 11 more bottles of water at the end of the game, the number increases to 22 + 11 = 33 bottles of water taken. Without the bottles taken, there are 48 - 33 = 15 bottles of water remaining in the box. The answer is 15.
