At a cafe, the breakfast plate has two eggs and twice as many bacon strips as eggs. If 14 customers order breakfast plates, how many bacon strips does the cook need to fry?
Let's think: Each breakfast plate has 2 x 2 = 4 bacon strips. The cook needs to fry 14 x 4 = 56 bacon strips.. The answer is: 56.

Each wall of a 3 sided shower has 8 tiles running the width of the wall and 20 tiles running the height of the wall. How many tiles are in the shower?
Let's think: There are 8 tiles along the width and 20 tiles along the height for a total of 8 * 20 = 160 tiles. Each wall has 160 tiles and there are 3 walls so there are 160 * 3 = 480 tiles in the shower.. The answer is: 480.

The cost of Joe's new HVAC system is $20,000. It includes 2 conditioning zones, each with 5 vents. In dollars, what is the cost of the system per vent?
Let's think: Two zones with 5 vents per zone is 2 * 5 = 10 vents. Thus, the $20,000 system costs $20,000 / 10 = $2,000 per vent.. The answer is: 2000.

Emily makes $1,000,000 per year. If she has 10 employees who make $20,000 per year, how much would her salary be if she took part of her salary to make sure all of her employees make $35,000 per year.
Let's think:
Each employee needs $35,000 - $20,000 = $15,000 more per year. In total, Emily needs to pay $15,000 * 10 = $150,000 extra. Emily will need to have a new salary of $1,000,000 - $150,000 = $850,000 per year.. The answer is: 850000.
