Question: Jordan picked 54 mangoes from his tree. One-third of the mangoes were ripe while the other two-thirds were not yet ripe. Jordan kept 16 unripe mangoes and gave the remainder to his sister who pickled them in glass jars. If it takes 4 mangoes to fill a jar, how many jars of pickled mangoes can Jordan's sister make?
Answer: Jordan picked 54 / 3 = 18 ripe mangoes. He picked 54 - 18 = 36 unripe mangoes. Jordan gave 36 - 16 = 20 unripe mangoes to his sister. Jordan's sister can make 20 / 4 = 5 jars of pickled mangoes. The answer is 5.

Question: Isabel loves to run in the forest and she does it within a circuit that is 365 meters long. She runs the circuit 7 times in the morning and runs it 3 times in the afternoon. How many meters does Isabel run during a week?
Answer: In the morning she runs 7 * 365 = 2555 metres. In the afternoon she runs 3 * 365 = 1095 meters. In one day, afternoon and morning, she runs 2555 + 1095 = 3650 meters. In a week, she runs 7 * 3650 = 25550 meters. The answer is 25550.

Question: There are 50 passengers on a bus. At the first stop, 16 more passengers get on the bus. On the other stops, 22 passengers get off the bus and 5 passengers more get on the bus. How many passengers are there on the bus in total at the last station?
Answer: There are 50 + 16 = 66 passengers at first. Then 66 - 22 = 44 passengers remain. Since 5 more passengers get on the bus there are 44 + 5 = 49 passengers on the bus. The answer is 49.

Question: Thomas started saving for a car almost 2 years ago. For the first year, his weekly allowance was $50. In the second year, he got a job that pays $9 an hour at a coffee shop and worked 30 hours a week, so his parents discontinued his allowance. If the car he wants to buy is $15,000 and he spends $35 a week on himself, how much more money does Thomas need to buy the car by the end of the 2 years?
Answer:
There are 52 weeks in a year. For the first year, Thomas received 52 x 50 = $2600. In the second year, Thomas earned 9 x 30 = $270 a week. In a year, Thomas earned 52 x 270 = $14,040. The total for the two years is 14040 + 2600 = 16640. In 2 years, Thomas' weekly expenses amounted to $35 x (52 x 2) = $35 x 104 = $3640. By the end of 2 years, Thomas would have saved $16640 - $3640 = 13000. Thomas still needs $15,000 - 13000 = $2000. The answer is 2000.
