Tom, Tim, and Paul are collecting photos of cars. Paul has 10 photos more than Tim. Tim has one hundred photos less than the total amount of photos which is 152. How many photos does Tom have?

Tim has 152 photos - 100 photos =

<<152-100=52>>52 photos. When Tim has 52 photos, then Paul has 52 + 10 photos = <<52+10=62>>62 photos. Tim and Paul have together 52 photos + 62 photos = <<52+62=114>>114 photos. That leaves Tom with 152 photos - 114 photos = <<152-114=38>>38 photos. #### 38 The Reptile House at the zoo has 5 fewer animals than 3 times the number of animals housed in the Rain Forest exhibit. If the Reptile House has 16 animals, how many are in the Rain Forest exhibit? Let x be the number of animals in the Rain Forest exhibit 3x-5=16 3x=21 x=<<7=7>>7 #### 7 James turned 23 the same time John turned 35. Tim is 5 years less than twice John's age. If Tim is 79 how old is James? James is 35-23=<<35-23=12>>12 years younger than John 5 years less than Tim's age is 79-5=74 years old So John is 74/2=<<74/2=37>>37 years old That means James is 37-12=<<37-12=25>>25 years old #### 25 Jane plans on reading a novel she borrows from her friend. She reads twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening. In the morning she reads 5 pages and in the evening she reads 10 pages. If she reads at this rate for a week, how many pages will she read? The number of pages Jane reads in a day is 5 in the morning and 10 in the evening, so she reads 10 + 5 = <<10+5=15>>15 pages in a day. If she reads for a week she reads for 7 days, so by the end of the week she reads 15 * 7 = <<15*7=105>>105 pages. #### 105 Seth and his brother want to see their favorite band in concert. The tickets are $50.00 each. There is a 15% processing fee for the tickets. They are also charged $10.00 for parking and an additional $5.00 per person entrance fee. How much will it cost to go to the concert? The tickets are $50.00 each and they need 2 tickets so that's 50*2 = $<<50*2=100.00>>100.00 There is a 15% processing fee for the tickets so that's 100*.15 = $<<100*.15=15.00>>15.00 The tickets are $100.00 and the processing fee is $15.00 for a total of 100+15 = $<<100+15=115.00>>115.00 There is a $5.00 per person entrance fee and there are 2 people so that's 5*2 = $<<5*2=10.00>>10.00 The tickets are $115.00, parking is $10.00 and the entrance fee is $10.0 for a total of 115+10+10 = $<<115+10+10=135.00>>135.00 #### 135 New York is two-thirds as populated as all of New England. If New England has 2100000 people, calculate the combined population of both states. New York is two-thirds as populated as all of New England, meaning there are 2/3*2100000 = <<2/3*2100000=1400000>>1400000 people living in New York. The combined population of both states is 1400000+2100000 = <<1400000+2100000=3500000>>3500000 #### 3500000 Maria is chopping up vegetables for a stew. She wants to cut up six times as many carrots as potatoes, twice as many onions as carrots, and 1/3 as many green beans as onions. If she has two potatoes, how many green beans does she need to cut? First find how many carrots Maria needs to cut by multiplying the number of potatoes by 6: 6 * 2 = <<6*2=12>>12. Then find how many onions she needs by multiplying the number of carrots by 2: 12 * 2 = <<12*2=24>>24. Finally, divide the number of onions by 3 to find the number of green beans she needs 24 / 3 = <<24/3=8>>8. #### 8 Twenty gallons of tea were poured into 80 containers. Geraldo drank 3.5 containers. How many pints of tea did Geraldo drink? 20 gallons = 160 pints 160/80 = <<160/80=2>>2 pints 3.5 * 2 pints = <<3.5*2=7>>7 pints Geraldo drank 7 pints of tea. #### 7 Tom reads 10 hours over 5 days. He can read 50 pages per hour. Assuming he reads the same amount every day how many pages does he read in 7 days? He reads 10/5=<<10/5=2>>2 hours per day That means he reads 2*50=<<2*50=100>>100 pages per day So he reads 100*7=<<100*7=700>>700 pages in 7 days #### 700 Peyton has 3 children and they each get a juice box in their lunch, 5 days a week. The school year is 25 weeks long. How many juices boxes will she need for the entire school year for all of her children? Each of the 3 children gets 1 juice box, 5 days a week, so she needs 3*5 = <<3*5=15>>15 juice boxes in 1 week The school year is 25 weeks long and she needs 15 juice boxes per week so she needs 25*15 = <<25*15=375>>375 juice boxes #### 375
