[Question]Mike decides to buy a new camera. He wants to buy a top-of-the-line camera but he decides to wait for the new model to come out. The new model costs 30% more than the current model. The old camera cost $4000. He gets $200 off a $400 lens he bought. How much did he pay for the camera and lens?
[Answer]The new camera cost 4000 * .3 = $1200 more than the old camera. So the camera cost 4000 + 1200 = $5200. The lens cost 400 - 200 = $200. So the total cost was 5200 + 200 = $5400. The answer is 5400.
Q: Sam and Jeff had a skipping competition at recess. The competition was split into four rounds. Sam completed 1 more skip than Jeff in the first round. Jeff skipped 3 fewer times than Sam in the second round. Jeff skipped 4 more times than Sam in the third round. Jeff got tired and only completed half the number of skips as Sam in the last round. If Sam skipped 16 times in each round, what is the average number of skips per round completed by Jeff?
A: In round one, Jeff completed 16 - 1 = 15. In round two, Jeff completed 16 - 3 = 13. In round three, Jeff completed 16 + 4 = 20. In round four, Jeff completed 16 / 2 = 8. Jeff completed 15 + 13 + 20 + 8 = 56 skips in total. Jeff skipped an average of 56 / 4 = 14 skips per round. The answer is 14.
Question: June liked to collect cat stickers. She had a total of 76 in her collection. Her twin sister Bonnie also collected cat stickers and had 63 in her collection. For their birthday, their grandparents gave them 25 cat stickers each. How many combined stickers did they have?
Answer: June had 76 stickers and was given 25 from her grandparents so she had 76 + 25 = 101 stickers. Bonnie had 63 stickers and was given 25 from her grandparents so she had 63 + 25 = 88 stickers. June had 101 stickers and Bonnie had 88 stickers so together, they had 101 + 88 = 189 stickers. The answer is 189.
[Question]Max has 8 children and each of his children has the same number of children as he does except for 2 who have 5 children each. How many grandchildren does he have?
[Answer]Out of his 8 children, 2 have only 5 children so the rest who have 8 ( the same number as him) are 8 - 2 = 6. 6 of Max's children have 8 children each for a total of 6 * 8 = 48 grandchildren. 2 of Max's children have 5 children each for a total of 5 * 2 = 10 grandchildren. In total he has 48 + 10 = 58 grandchildren. The answer is 58.
Q: Tom invites his parents and 3 siblings to his house. They each eat 3 times a day. How many plates do Tom and his guests use while they are there for the 4 days if each person uses 2 plates per meal?
A: There were 1 + 2 + 3 = 6 people at the house. That means they use 6 * 2 = 12 plates per meal. So they use 12 * 3 = 36 plates per day. That means they use 36 * 4 = 144 plates for the visit. The answer is 144.
