Answer the following question.
Jame has 60 bars of gold. He uses 10% of them to pay for tax and then loses half of what is left in divorce. How many gold bars does he have left?
Step-by-step reasoning process: He loses 60 * .1 = 6 bars to taxes. That means he has 60 - 6 = 54 bars after taxes. So he has 54 / 2 = 27 bars after the divorce.
The answer is 27.

Answer the following question.
Marcus wants to buy a new pair of shoes. He decided to pay not more than $130 for them. He found a pair for $120, on which he got a discount of 30%. How much money will he manage to save by buying these shoes and not spending the assumed maximum amount?
Step-by-step reasoning process: The discount on the shoes Marcus found is 120 * 30 / 100 = $36. That means he only had to pay 120 - 36 = $84. So Marcus was able to save 130 - 84 = $46.
The answer is 46.

Answer the following question.
James replaces the coffee for the household. There are 3 other people in the house and everyone drinks 2 cups of coffee a day. It takes .5 ounces of coffee per cup of coffee. If coffee costs $1.25 an ounce, how much does he spend on coffee a week?
Step-by-step reasoning process: There are 3 + 1 = 4 people in the house. So they drink 4 * 2 = 8 cups of coffee a day. That means they use 8 * .5 = 4 ounces of coffee a day. So they use 4 * 7 = 28 ounces of coffee a week. So he spends 28 * 1.25 = $35.
The answer is 35.

Answer the following question.
Rubble has $15 in his pocket and he needs to buy 2 notebooks and 2 pens. Each notebook cost $4.00 meanwhile each pen cost $1.50. How much money will be left from Rubble after the purchase?
Step-by-step reasoning process: The total cost of two notebooks is $4.00 x 2 = $8.00. The total cost of two pen $1.50 x 2 = $3.00. So, the total amount Rubble spent for all the stuff was $8.00 + $3.00 = $11.00. Therefore, Rubble was left off with $15.00 - $11.00 = $4.00.
The answer is 4.
