A movie that's 1.5 hours long is being replayed 6 times in one movie theater each day. There is a 20-minute advertisement before the start of the movie. How long, in hours, does the movie theater operate each day?

The movie that is being replayed 6 times takes 1.5 x 6 =

<<6*1.5=9>>9 hours. The advertisements before the start of the movie take 20 x 6 = <<20*6=120>>120 minutes in all. One hundred twenty minutes is equal to 120/60 = <<120/60=2>>2 hours. Thus, the movie theater operates for 9 + 2 = <<9+2=11>>11 hours each day. #### 11 Two-thirds of all the animals on my street are cats and the rest are dogs. If there are 300 animals on the street, what's the total number of legs of dogs that are on the street? The number of cats on the street is 2/3*300 = <<2/3*300=200>>200 If there are 300 animals on the street, and 200 are cats, there are 300-200 = <<300-200=100>>100 dogs. Since a dog has four legs, the total number of legs the 100 dogs have is 100*4 = <<100*4=400>>400 legs. #### 400 Jason bought 4 dozen cupcakes. He plans to give 3 cupcakes each to his cousins. How many cousins does Jason have? Since a dozen is equal to 12, then Jason bought 12 x 4 = <<12*4=48>>48 cupcakes. So, Jason has 48/3 = <<48/3=16>>16 cousins. #### 16 Edmonton is 220 kilometers north of Red Deer. Calgary is 110 kilometers south of Red Deer. If you travel at 110 kilometers per hour, how long will it take to get from Edmonton to Calgary? Total distance travelled is 220km + 110km = <<220+110=330>>330 km. Time to travel that far is 330km / 110km/hour = <<330/110=3>>3 hours. #### 3 In 5 years, Raven will be 4 times as old as Phoebe. If Phoebe is currently 10 years old, how old is Raven? In five years, Phoebe will be 10+5 = <<10+5=15>>15 years old. If Raven is four times as old as Phoebe in fifteen years, he will be 4*15 = <<4*15=60>>60 years old in 5 years. Currently, Raven is 60-5 = <<60-5=55>>55 years old. #### 55 Linda's bag has 2 dimes, 6 quarters, and 5 nickels. Her mother gives her 2 more dimes, 10 quarters, and twice as many nickels as she has. How many coins does she have altogether? When Linda's mother gave her 2 more dimes, the total number of dimes increased to 2+2 = <<2+2=4>>4 dimes. She also increased the total number of quarters to 6+10 = <<6+10=16>>16 after her mother gave her 10 more. The total number of dimes and quarters she has is 16+4 = <<16+4=20>>20 Linda's mother also gave her twice as many nickels as she has, a total of 2*5 = <<2*5=10>>10 nickels. The total number of nickels she has increased to 10+5 = <<10+5=15>>15 Altogether, Linda has 20+15= <<20+15=35>>35 coins. #### 35 Carolyn wants to embroider her new jeans. She can sew 4 stitches/minute. A flower takes 60 stitches to embroider, a unicorn takes 180 stitches, and Godzilla takes 800 stitches. If Carolyn wants to embroider Godzilla crushing 3 unicorns and 50 flowers, how many minutes does she need to spend embroidering? First find the total stitches in all the flowers by multiplying the number of stitches per flower by the number of flowers: 50 flowers * 60 stitches/flower = <<50*60=3000>>3000 stitches Then do the same for the total number of stitches in the unicorns: 3 unicorns * 180 stitches/unicorn = <<3*180=540>>540 stitches Then add the number of stitches for all the flowers, unicorns, and Godzilla to find the total number of stitches: 800 stitches + 540 stitches + 3000 stitches = <<800+540+3000=4340>>4340 stitches Finally, divide the total number of stitches by the number of stitches Carolyn can make per hour to find how many hours she spends embroidering: 4340 stitches / 4 stitches/minute = <<4340/4=1085>>1085 minutes #### 1085 There are 20 students in a class. Only one-fourth of the students stayed in the classroom while the rest went to the playground. Of those who went to the playground, one-third are boys. How many girls are there on the playground from this class? Out of the 20 students, 20 x 1/4 = <<20*1/4=5>>5 students stayed in the classroom. While 20 - 5 = <<20-5=15>>15 students went to the playground. Out of these 15 students, 15 x 1/3 = <<15*1/3=5>>5 are boys. Therefore, 15 - 5 = <<15-5=10>>10 girl students from this class are in the playground. #### 10 Alex and Max are running a race against each other. At the beginning of the race they are even with each other for 200 feet. Then Alex gets ahead of Max by 300 feet. Then Max gets ahead of Alex by 170 feet. Alex gets a burst of speed and gets ahead of Max by 440 feet. If the road they're running on is 5000 feet long, how many feet are there left for Max to catch up to Alex? So far Alex and Max are running the race for 200 + 300 + 170 + 440 = <<200+300+170+440=1110>>1,110 feet. If the road they're racing each other on is 5000 feet long, 5000 - 1,110 feet = <<5000-1110=3890>>3,890 feet left for Max to catch up to Alex. #### 3,890 Francie saves up her allowance for several weeks. She receives an allowance of $5 a week for 8 weeks. Then her dad raises her allowance, and she receives $6 a week for 6 weeks. Francie uses half of the money to buy new clothes. With the remaining money, she buys a video game that costs $35. How much money does Francie have remaining after buying the video game? When her allowance is $5 a week, Francie gets a total of $5 * 8 = $<<5*8=40>>40 When her allowance is $6 a week, Francie gets a total of $6 * 6 = $<<6*6=36>>36 The total amount of money Francie gets is $40 + $36 = $<<40+36=76>>76 After purchasing new clothes, she has $76 / 2 = $<<76/2=38>>38 remaining After buying the video game, Francie has $38 - $35 = $<<38-35=3>>3 remaining #### 3
