Bob can shuck 10 oysters in 5 minutes. How many oysters can he shuck in 2 hours?

He shucks 10 oysters in 5 minutes we need to know how many 5 minute units are in 60 minutes so 60/5 = 12 units

He can shuck 10 oysters in 5 minutes and there are 12 5 minute units in an hour so he can shuck 10*12 =

<<10*12=120>>120 oysters in 1 hour If he can shuck 120 oysters in 1 hour, so for 2 hours in can shuck 2*120 = 240 oysters #### 240 Angel has a tasty fruit salad restaurant making twice the number of fruit salads made by her friend Alaya's tasty fruit salad restaurant. Alaya's restaurant has 200 fruit salads. How many fruit salads are there in total in the two restaurants? Angel restaurant makes 2*200 = <<2*200=400>>400 fruit salads. The total number of fruit salads made in the two restaurants is 200+400 = <<200+400=600>>600 #### 600 Dana normally drinks a 500 ml bottle of soda each day. Since the 500 ml bottles are currently out of stock at the store, she buys a 2-liter bottle of soda instead. If Dana continues to drink 500 ml of soda each day, how long will the 2-liter bottle of soda last? There are 1,000 ml in 1 liter. There are 2*1,000 ml = <<2*1000=2000>>2,000 ml in a 2-liter bottle of soda. A 2-liter bottle of soda lasts 2,000/500 = <<2000/500=4>>4 days. #### 4 If Beth is 18 years old and her little sister is 5, in how many years would she be twice her sister's age? The age difference between Beth and her sister is 18 - 5 = <<18-5=13>>13 years. Beth must be 13 x 2 = <<13*2=26>>26 to be twice her sister's age. Beth will be twice her sister's age in 26 - 18 = <<26-18=8>>8 years. #### 8 At a birthday party, there are 20 red balloons and 15 green balloons. Before the party started, 3 red and 2 green balloons burst. How many balloons are left? There are a total of 20 + 15 = <<20+15=35>>35 balloons at the party. Out of the 35, 3 + 2 = 5 balloons burst. Thus, only 35 - 5 = <<35-5=30>>30 balloons are left. #### 30 At a bus station, a bus leaves every half-hour for 12 hours a day. How many buses leave the station for 5 days? If one bus leaves every half-hour, then during one hour, there are 1 + 1 = <<1+1=2>>2 buses that leave the station. During 5 days 2 * 12 * 5 = 120 buses leave the station. #### 120 Inez has $150. She spends one-half on hockey skates and a certain amount on hockey pads. If Inez has $25 remaining, how much did the hockey pads cost, together, in dollars? She spent 150/2=$<<150/2=75>>75 on hockey skates. Let X be the amount Inez spent on hockey pads. 150-75-X=25 75-X=25 X=<<50=50>>50 The hockey pads cost $<<50=50>>50. #### 50 The average temperature in Orlando in a particular week was 60 degrees. If the temperature on each of the first 3 days in that week was 40, and the temperature for Thursday and Friday was 80 degrees each, calculate the total temperature of the remaining days of that week. If the average temperature of Orlando for the week was 60, then the total temperature for the week was 7*60 = <<7*60=420>>420 degrees For the first three days of that week, the temperature was 40 degrees each day, totaling 3*40 = <<3*40=120>>120 degrees in the three days. The temperature for Thursday and Friday was 80 degrees each, a total of 80*2 = <<80*2=160>>160 degrees. The temperature of Orlando for the first five days was 160+120 = <<160+120=280>>280 degrees. The temperature for the remaining two days is 420-280 = <<420-280=140>>140 degrees. #### 140 Eliza buys 200 ornamental rings to sell in their local shop, twice the number of the remaining stock. After selling 3/4 of the total stock, her mother buys 300 more ornamental rings, and after three days, sells 150. What's the total number of ornamental rings remaining in the store? If Eliza restocked twice the original number of ornamental rings, the number was 200/2= <<200/2=100>>100 rings. The total number of ornamental rings in stock is now 200+100 = <<200+100=300>>300 rings. When she sells 3/4 of the stock, the total number of rings sold is 3/4*300 =<<3/4*300=225>>225 rings. The remaining stock is 300-225 = <<300-225=75>>75 rings. When her mother buys 300 more rings, the stock is boosted to 75+300 = <<75+300=375>>375 rings. She then sells out 150, reducing the stock to 375-150 = 225 rings #### 225 Jeremy buys 3 bags of chips for a party. Stacy and Emily also buy chips for the party. If they need 10 bags of chips total, and Stacy buys 4 bags, how many bags of chips should Emily buy? Jeremy and Stacy buy 3+4 = <<3+4=7>>7 bags of chips. Since there needs to be 10 total, Emily should buy 10-7=<<10-7=3>>3 bags of chips. #### 3
