[Question]Janet has a business selling custom collars for dogs and cats. If it takes 18 inches of nylon to make a dog collar and 10 inches to make a cat collar, how much nylon does she need to make 9 dog collars and 3 cat collars?
[Answer]First find the total number of inches of nylon used for the dog collars: 18 inches / dog collar * 9 dog collars = 162 inches. Then find the total number of inches of nylon used for the cat collars: 10 inches / cat collar * 3 cat collars = 30 inches. Then add the nylon needed for the cat and dog collars to find the total amount needed: 162 inches + 30 inches = 192 inches. The answer is 192.
Q: In a store, there are three types of cheese: white, swiss, and blue cheese. Each cheese is packaged, and there are 200 grams of cheese in each package. The package prices are $5 for white cheese, $6 for swiss cheese, and $8 for blue cheese. Miley needed to get some for her party, and she decided to buy 5 packs of swiss cheese, 600 grams of blue cheese, and one-third less white cheese. How much did she need to pay for all the cheese?
A: For the swiss cheese, Miley paid 5 * 6 = $30. 600 grams of blue cheese means 600 / 200 = 3 packages. So for the blue cheese, Miley paid 3 * 8 = $24. One - third of the blue cheese means 1 / 3 * 600 = 200 grams. So Miley bought only 600 - 200 = 400 grams of white cheese. Which means 400 / 200 = 2 packages. So for the white cheese, Miley paid 2 * 5 = $10. So in total for all the cheese, Miley paid 30 + 24 + 10 = $64. The answer is 64.
