[Question]Tony lifts weights as a form of exercise. He can lift 90 pounds with one arm in the exercise known as "the curl." In an exercise known as "the military press," he can lift over his head twice the weight that he can curl. His favorite exercise is known as "the squat" and he can squat 5 times the weight that he can lift in the military press. How much weight, in pounds, can Tony lift in the squat exercise?
[Answer]If Tony can curl 90 pounds, he can military press 2 * 90 = 180 pounds. Therefore, Tony can squat 5 * 180 = 900 pounds. The answer is 900.

Question: Johnny is an engineer designing a bridge. The roadway deck for the top of the bridge needs 1600 tons of concrete to construct. The two bridge anchors need equal amounts of concrete, but only one has been built so far, using 700 tons of concrete. Johnny had to calculate how many tons of concrete the supporting pillars underneath the bridge would need, and he found that the total amount of concrete in the entire bridge will be 4800 tons. How much concrete did Johnny find he needs for the supporting pillars?
Answer: The bridge anchors will take 700 * 2 = 1400 tons of concrete. The roadway deck and bridge anchors need 1600 + 1400 = 3000 tons of concrete. Thus, Johnny found the supporting pillars need 4800 - 3000 = 1800 tons of concrete. The answer is 1800.
[Question]Jezebel needs to buy two dozens of red roses and 3 pieces of sunflowers for a bouquet that she is going to arrange. Each red rose costs $1.50 and each sunflower costs $3. How much will Jezebel pay for all those flowers?
[Answer]Jezebel needs to buy 2 x 12 = 24 red roses. Twenty - four red roses will cost 24 x $1.50 = $36. Three sunflower will cost 3 x $3 = $9. Thus, Jezebel will pay $36 + $9 = $45 for all those flowers. The answer is 45.
[Question]Anna's mom gave her $10.00 to buy anything she wanted from the candy store. Anna bought 3 packs of chewing gum for $1.00 each, 5 chocolate bars at $1 each and 2 large candy canes for $0.50 each. How much money did Anna have left?
[Answer]
Anna bought 3 packs of chewing gum that were $1 each for a total of 3 * 1 = $3. Anna bought 5 chocolate bars that were $1 each for a total of 5 * 1 = $5. Anna bought 2 large candy canes that were $.50 each for a total of 2 * .50 = $1. The total amount spent was $3 + $5 + $1 = $9.00. Anna had $10 to start and spent $9.00 so she had $10 - $9.00 = $1.00 left. The answer is 1.
