Pat is having a picnic with her family. She has 42 cookies. She also has 63 pieces of candy and 21 brownies. There are 7 people in her family. If each person gets the same number of each dessert, how much will each person get?

Each person gets 42 cookies / 7 people =

<<42/7=6>>6 cookies. Each person gets 63 pieces of candy / 7 people = <<63/7=9>>9 pieces of candy. Each person gets 21 brownies / 7 people = <<21/7=3>>3 brownies. Each person will get 6 + 9 + 3 = <<6+9+3=18>>18 desserts. #### 18 3 lions and 2 rhinos escape from the zoo. If it takes 2 hours to recover each animal how long did the zoo spend recovering animals? They had to recover 3+2=<<3+2=5>>5 animals So it took 5*2=<<5*2=10>>10 hours to recover everyone #### 10 The batting cage sells golf balls by the dozen. They charge $30 for 3 dozen. Dan buys 5 dozen, Gus buys 2 dozen, and Chris buys 48 golf balls. How many golf balls do they purchase in total, assuming 12 golf balls are 1 dozen? Dan gets 5*12 = <<5*12=60>>60 golf balls. Gus gets 2*12 = <<2*12=24>>24 golf balls. In total they purchase 60+24+48 = <<60+24+48=132>>132 golf balls #### 132 There were 100 jelly beans in a bag to be given away on Halloween. Out of the 40 children taking part in the Halloween celebration, 80% were allowed to draw jelly beans from the bag. Each child drew two jelly beans out of the bag. How many jelly beans remained in the bag after the children took their share? Out of the 40 children taking part in the Halloween celebration, 80% were allowed to draw jelly beans from the bag, a total of 80/100*40=<<80/100*40=32>>32 children. If each of the 32 children drew two jelly beans out of the bag, they drew a total of 32*2=<<32*2=64>>64 jelly beans from the bag. The total number of jelly beans that remained is 100-64=<<100-64=36>>36 #### 36 Jessica is six years older than Claire. In two years, Claire will be 20 years old. How old is Jessica now?

If 7 people voted for the witch cake, how many votes were cast total? First find the number of votes for the unicorn cake: 7 votes * 3 = <<7*3=21>>21 votes Then find the number of votes for the dragon cake: 25 votes + 7 votes = <<25+7=32>>32 votes Then add the number of votes for each cake to find the total number of votes: 21 votes + 32 votes + 7 votes = <<21+32+7=60>>60 votes #### 60 A shipping boat's crew consisted of 17 sailors, with five inexperienced sailors. Each experienced sailor was paid 1/5 times more than the inexperienced sailors. If the inexperienced sailors were paid $10 per hour for a 60-hour workweek, calculate the total combined monthly earnings of the experienced sailors. If the experienced sailors received 1/5 times more money than the inexperienced sailors, they were paid 1/5*10 = $<<1/5*10=2>>2 more. The total hourly earnings for the experienced sailors each is $10+$2= $<<10+2=12>>12 In a 60-hour workweek, an experienced sailor is paid 60*$12 = $<<60*12=720>>720 In a month, an experienced sailor is paid 4*$720 = $<<4*720=2880>>2880 If there were five inexperienced sailors, the total number of experienced sailors was 17-5 = 12 If each experienced sailor was paid $2280 per month, the total combined monthly earnings for the experienced is 12*2880 = $<<12*2880=34560>>34560 #### 34560 A luxury bag costs $3000. A reseller wants to get a 15% profit. How much should she sell the bag? The reseller wants to get $3000 x 15/100 = $<<3000*15/100=450>>450 profit. Thus, she needs to sell it for $3000 + $450 = $<<3000+450=3450>>3450. #### 3450 A paper company decides to operate their business more sustainably. They decide that for every tree they chop down, they want to plant three more. If the company chops down 200 trees in the first half of the year and 300 more trees in the second half of the year, how many more trees does the company need to plant? The company has chopped down a total of 200 + 300 = <<200+300=500>>500 trees throughout the year. They plant 3 trees for every tree they chop so they need to plant 500 trees * 3 = <<500*3=1500>>1500 trees. #### 1500
