Q: Jill sells girl scout cookies. This year, she wants to sell at least 150 cookie boxes. Her first customer buys 5 boxes, Her second one buys 4 times more than her first customer. Her third customer buys half as much as her second. The fourth customer buys 3 times as much as her third. Lastly, her final customer buys 10. How many boxes so Jill have left to sell to hit her sales goal?
A: Jill's second customer buys 4 times more than her first customer's 5 boxes, so they buy 4 * 5 = 20 boxes. Jill's third customer buys half of what her second customer bought, so that means they buy 20 / 2 = 10 boxes. Jill's fourth customer buys 3 times as many as what her third customer bought, so that means they buy 10 * 3 = 30 boxes. Adding in the 5 boxes sold to the first customer, and the 10 boxes sold to the last one, that means Jill has sold 5 + 10 + 20 + 10 + 30 = 75 boxes. Since Jill's goal is 150 boxes sold, and she's only sold 75 so far, she needs to sell 150 - 75 = 75 more boxes to hit her goal. The answer is 75.
