Q: Aida has twice as many dolls as Sophie, and Sophie has twice as many dolls as Vera. How many dolls do Aida, Sophie, and Vera have combined if Vera has 20 dolls?
A: If Sophie has twice as many dolls as Vera, then she has 2 * 20 dolls = 40 dolls. Aida has 2 * 40 dolls = 80 dolls, twice the number Sophie has. In total, they have 80 dolls + 40 dolls + 20 dolls = 140 dolls. The answer is 140.
Question: Apple and peach trees are planted in the orchard of the Grange Poser farm. The orchard has 30 apple trees that each give 150 kg of apples and 45 peach trees that each produce an average of 65 kg of fruit. What is the total mass of fruit harvested in this orchard?
Answer: Let's first calculate what the apple trees produce: 30 trees * 150 kg / tree = 4500 kg. Then let's calculate what the peaches produce: 45 trees * 65 kg / tree = 2925 kg. We add these two masses: 4500 kg + 2925 kg = 7425 kg. The answer is 7425.
[Question]Janet filmed a new movie that is 60% longer than her previous 2-hour long movie. Her previous movie cost $50 per minute to film, and the newest movie cost twice as much per minute to film as the previous movie. What was the total amount of money required to film Janet's entire newest film?
[Answer]The first movie was 2 * 60 = 120 minutes. So this movie is 120 * .6 = 72 minutes longer. So this movie is 192 minutes. It also cost 50 * 2 = $100 per minute to film. So it cost 192 * 100 = $1920. The answer is 1920.
Q: Carrie is wrapping three birthday presents. One present needs two square feet of wrapping paper to cover. The second present needs three-quarters of that amount. The third present needs the same amount as both other presents put together. How many square feet of wrapping paper does Carrie need for all three presents?
A: The second present needs 3 / 4 * 2 = 1 1 / 2 square feet of wrapping paper. The third present needs 2 + 1 1 / 2 = 3 1 / 2 square feet of wrapping paper. Therefore, Carrie needs 2 + 1 1 / 2 + 3 1 / 2 = 7 square feet of wrapping paper for all three presents. The answer is 7.
Question: Studying for her test, Mitchell had read ten chapters of a book before 4 o'clock. When it clocked 4, Mitchell had read 20 pages of the 11th chapter of the book she was studying from. After 4 o'clock, she didn't read the remaining pages of chapter eleven but proceeded and read 2 more chapters of the book. If each chapter in the book had 40 pages, calculate the total number of pages that Mitchell had read altogether?
Answer: Since each chapter of the book has 40 pages, Mitchell had read 10 * 40 = 400 pages from the first ten chapters. After reading 20 pages of the eleventh chapter, the total number of pages that Mitchell had read is 400 + 20 = 420. The next two chapters that she read had 2 * 40 = 80 pages. In total, Mitchell read 420 + 80 = 500 pages of the book that day. The answer is 500.
Q: At the Boisjoli farm, there is a chicken coop where 270 hens and 3 roosters live. Every morning, around 8 a.m., Ms. Mosel goes to collect the eggs because, every morning, each hen lays one. Then, after 1 hour of collection, she puts all these eggs in boxes of 6. It takes her another 40 minutes. Once all this is done, Ms. Mosel brings all the boxes of eggs to her village. She does it from Monday to Sunday, because chickens don't have a day off. How many boxes does Ms. Mosel fill each week?
A:
First calculate the number of eggs laid in 1 week: 270 X 7 = 1890 eggs. Now let's put these eggs in the boxes: 1890 / 6 = 315 boxes. The answer is 315.
