[Question]Linda is painting her bedroom. Her bedroom has 4 walls, with the room being 20 feet wide by 20 feet long by 8 feet tall. One wall has a 3-foot by 7-foot doorway. A second wall has a 6-foot by 4-foot window. A third wall has a 5-foot by 7-foot doorway to a walk-in-closet. And the fourth wall is completely solid. What is the total area of wall space that Linda will have to paint?
[Answer]The solid wall is 8 ft. * 20 ft. = 160 sq. ft. The doorway is 3 ft. * 7 ft. = 21 sq. ft. The window is 6 ft. * 4 ft. = 24 sq. ft. The closet door is 5 ft. * 7 ft. = 35 sq. ft. The total area of the doors and windows is 21 sq. ft + 24 sq. ft. + 35 sq. ft. = 80 sq. ft. The solid wall is 160 sq. ft., so before the areas of the doors and window are taken into account, the total wall area is 4 * 160 sq. ft. = 640 sq. ft. Taking into account the doors and window, the total wall area Linda will have to paint is 640 sq. ft. - 80 sq. ft. = 560 sq. ft. The answer is 560.

[Question]Ravi can jump higher than anyone in the class. In fact, he can jump 1.5 times higher than the average jump of the three next highest jumpers. If the three next highest jumpers can jump 23 inches, 27 inches, and 28 inches, how high can Ravi jump?
[Answer]The total height the next three highest can jump is 78 inches because 23 + 27 + 28 = 78. The average height they can jump is 26 inches because 78 / 3 = 26. Ravi can jump 39 inches high because 26 x 1.5 = 39. The answer is 39.

[Question]A water tank has a capacity of 4000 gallons. Mack connects a pipe to the tank that fills the tank with water at the rate of 10 gallons per hour. How long will it take to fill the tank to 3/4 of its capacity?
[Answer]3 / 4 of the water tank is 3 / 4 * 4000 = 3000. If the pipe fills the tank with water at the rate of 10 gallons per hour, it will take 3000 / 10 = 300 hours to fill the tank to 3 / 4 of its capacity. The answer is 300.
