Q: The total number of books on four shelves, with 400 books each, is the same as the distance in miles that Karen bikes back to her home from the library. Calculate the total distance that Karen covers if she bikes from her home to the library and back.
A: If each shelf has 400 books, then the four shelves have 4 * 400 = 1600 books. Since the total number of books on the shelves is the same as the distance that Karen bikes back home, biking to and from the library takes 1600 + 1600 = 3200 miles. The answer is 3200.
Question: Hammond carves life-sized statues out of marble. His latest set of four statues started with an 80-pound block of marble. The first statue he carved weighed 10 pounds. The second statue weighed 18. The remaining two statues weighed the same amount. The marble he discarded after carving it off the statues weighed 22 pounds. How much did each of the remaining statues Hammond carved weigh?
Answer: Hammond's statues weighed 80 - 22 = 58 pounds after the discarded marble was carved off. Minus the first statue, the statues weighed 58 - 10 = 48 pounds. Minus the second statue, the statues weighed 48 - 18 = 30 pounds. The remaining two statues weighed the same amount, so each weighed 30 / 2 = 15 pounds. The answer is 15.
[Question]Vann is a veterinarian. Today he is going to be doing dental cleanings only. Dogs have 42 teeth, cats have 30 teeth and pigs have 28 teeth. If he is to do 5 dogs, 10 cats and 7 pigs, how many total teeth will Vann clean today?
[Answer]First let's find the number for each animal separately, 42 teeth per dog * 5 dogs = 210 teeth for dogs. Then cats total will be 30 teeth per cat * 10 cats = 300 teeth in total for cats. Finally, the number for pigs is 28 teeth per pig * 7 pigs = 196 teeth in total for pigs. So the total in all is 210 teeth + 300 teeth + 196 teeth = 706 teeth in total. The answer is 706.
Q: Dakota gets hit by a bus and has to spend 3 days in the hospital. The hospital charges her $900/day for her bed, $250/hour for two specialists to look at her 15 minutes each, and $1800 for the ambulance ride. How much is Dakota's medical bill?
A: First find the total cost of the hospital bed by multiplying the cost per day by the number of days: $900 / day * 3 days = $2700. Then figure out how many minutes total the two specialists looked at Dakota: 15 minutes / specialist * 2 specialists = 30 minutes. Then divide the number of minutes by the number of minutes per hour and multiply it by the specialists' hourly rate to find their total charge: 30 minutes / 60 minutes / hour * $250 / hour = $125. Finally, add up the cost of the specialists, ambulance and bed to find Dakota's total bill: $2700 + $1800 + $125 = $4625. The answer is 4625.
