[Question]Jackie loves to climb trees. She climbed a 1000 foot tall tree. Then she climbed 2 trees that were half as tall as the first tree. She finished by climbing a tree that was 200 feet taller than her first tree. What was the average height of the trees that Jackie climbed?
[Answer]Jackie climbed 2 trees that were 1 / 2 * 1000 feet = 500 feet tall each. Jackie climbed a final tree that was 1000 + 200 feet = 1200 feet. In total, the 4 trees Jackie climbed were 1000 feet + 500 feet + 500 feet + 1200 feet = 3200 feet. The average height tree that Jackie climbed was 3200 feet / 4 trees = 800 feet tall. The answer is 800.

Question: Todd borrowed $100 from his brother to start a snow-cone stand. He has to repay him $110 as soon as he can. Todd spent $75 on ingredients for the snow cones. He sells 200 of them for $.75 each. After he pays back his brother, how much money does Todd have?
Answer: Todd has $25 left after buying ingredients because 100 - 75 = 25. Todd made $150 selling snow - cones because 200 x .75 = 150. Todd has $175 before he pays his brother back because 25 + 150 = 175. After Todd pays his brother back he has $65 because 175 - 110 = 65. The answer is 65.

Q: Jean needs to buy 10 new pairs of pants. A store is running a sale for 20% off. If the pants normally retail for $45 each how much will she need to pay for all of them after paying a 10% tax?
