Answer this question:Karl sells clothing in his store. He sells a T-shirt that costs $5, some pants that cost $4, and some skirts that cost $6, he also sells some refurbished t-shirts that cost half the original price. How much is his total income if he sold two T-shirts, one pair of pants, four skirts, and six refurbished T-shirts?
The refurbished T - shirt costs $5 / 2 = $2.5. He earn $2.5 x 6 = $15 for the refurbished T - shirt. He can earn $5 x 2 = $10 for the T - shirts. He can earn $4 x 1 = $4 for the pants. He can earn $6 x 4 = $24 for the skirts. Therefore Karl can earn a total of $15 + $10 + $4 + $24 = $53.
The answer is 53.

Answer this question:If Ken's house is twice as far from Dawn's house as Mary's house along a certain road, and Ken's house is 4 miles away from Dawn's house along this same road, how much distance (in miles) will Ken cover if he goes from his house to Dawn's house, then Mary's, then back to Dawn's before going back to his own house?
Ken's house is twice as far from Dawn's house as Mary's, so the distance between Ken's and Mary's is half that between Ken's and Dawn's (4 miles) which means the former is (1 / 2) * 4 miles = 2 miles. If Ken goes from his house to Dawn's, he has covered 4 miles. He goes from there to Mary's (2 miles, same as Ken's to Mary's) for a total of 4 + 2 = 6 miles. He goes back to Dawn's (another 2 miles) for a total of 6 + 2 = 8 miles. Then he goes to his own house (4 miles) for a final total of 8 + 4 = 12 miles.
The answer is 12.

Answer this question:Alden's family invited their relatives for a family reunion on Christmas eve. There were 50 more female adults than male adults, and children were twice the total number of adults. If there were 100 male adults, how many people attended the family reunion?
If the number of female adults was 50 more than the males, then there were 100 + 50 = 150 females. The total number of adults is 150 + 100 = 250. The children were twice the total number of adults, thus 2 * 250 = 500. The total number of people at the family reunion is 500 + 250 = 750.
The answer is 750.

Answer this question:Martin went to a store to buy a new television set. He decided to spend no more than $1,000 and the sales clerk offered him the TV for $100 less and an additional 20% off. How much lower was the price of the television than the amount Martin decided to spend?
The seller has offered him the TV for 1000 - 100 = $900. The discount on the television was 900 * 20 / 100 = $180. The final price of the television is therefore 900 - 180 = $720. Martin was able to save 1000 - 720 = $280.
The answer is 280.
