Daisy’s milk cow provides 16 cups of milk per day. 75% of the milk is consumed by Daisy’s kids. Daisy uses 50% of the remaining milk to cook with. How much milk is left over?

The cow provides 16 cups of milk per day and the kids consume 75% so they drink 16*.75 =

<<16*.75=12>>12 cups of milk The cow provides 16 cups of milk and the kids drink 12 cups leaving 16-12 = <<16-12=4>>4 cups of milk Daisy uses 50% of the remaining 4 cups of milk to cook with so she uses .50*4 = <<50*.01*4=2>>2 cups of milk She had 4 cups of milk and used 2 cups to cook with so that leaves 4-2 = <<4-2=2>>2 cups of milk #### 2 The coach of a football team asked his players to do six laps of the field. The field is in the shape of a rectangle of length 100 m and width 50 m. What is the distance each player will run, in meters? One lap corresponds to the perimeter of a rectangle of 100 m length and 50 m width: 2*100 + 2 *50 = <<2*100+2*50=300>>300 metres. Each player has to do six turns of the field, so runs 6*300 = <<6*300=1800>>1800 meters. #### 1800 Joan has 2 hours to get all her music practice done. She spends 30 minutes on the piano, 25 minutes writing music on her computer, and 38 minutes reading about the history of the piano. Her final work is to use a special finger exerciser. How much time does she have left to use this? She has 120 minutes to practice because 2 x 60 = <<2*60=120>>120 She has already spent 93 minutes on her work because 30 + 25 + 38 = <<30+25+38=93>>93 She has 27 minutes to use on finger exercise because 120-93 = <<120-93=27>>27 #### 27 Bess and Holly are playing Frisbee at the park. Bess can throw the Frisbee as far as 20 meters and she does this 4 times. Holly can only throw the Frisbee as far as 8 meters and she does this 5 times. Each time Bess throws a Frisbee, she throws it back to her original position. Holly leaves her Frisbee where it lands every time she throws it. In total, how many meters have the thrown Frisbees traveled? Bess throws the Frisbee out 4 times * 20 meters each time = <<4*20=80>>80 meters. She then throws it back which doubles the distance traveled to 80 meters * 2 = <<80*2=160>>160 meters. Holly throws the Frisbee out 5 times * 8 meters = <<5*8=40>>40 meters. So in total, Holly and Bess have thrown the Frisbees 160 + 40 = <<160+40=200>>200 meters. #### 200 Your mom bought a refrigerator and a washing machine. Note that the price of the refrigerator is $4275 and the price of the washing machine is $1490 less than the price of the refrigerator. Calculate the total price of the purchases in dollars. The price of the washing machine is $4275 - $1490 = $<<4275-1490=2785>>2785. The total price of the purchases is $4275 + $2785 = $<<4275+2785=7060>>7060. #### 7060 Myrtle’s 3 hens lay 3 eggs a day. She would be gone for 7 days and told her neighbor to take as many as they would like. The neighbor took 12 eggs. Once home, Myrtle collected the remaining eggs, dropping 5 on the way into her house. How many eggs does Myrtle have? She has 3 hens that lay 3 eggs a day so they lay 3*3 = <<3*3=9>>9 eggs a day The hens lay 9 eggs a day and she wasn't able to collect them for 7 days so that means there are 9*7 = <<9*7=63>>63 eggs Her neighbor took 12 off the 63 eggs so that leaves 63-12 = <<63-12=51>>51 eggs Myrtle dropped 5 of the remaining 51 eggs so she has 51-5 = <<51-5=46>>46 eggs #### 46 A restaurant is offering a fundraiser one day where they donate $2 for every $10 donated by customers. The average customer donates 3 and there are 40 customers that day. How much does the restaurant donate? Customer donated a total of $120 because 40 x 3 = <<40*3=120>>120 They got $10 a total of 12 times because 120 / 10 = <<120/10=12>>12 They donated $24 because 12 x 2 = <<12*2=24>>24 #### 24 A group of 6 students organized a fundraiser to go to Nicaragua for the summer. For them to go on the trip, each of them needs at least $450. On top of that, they need $3000 for their miscellaneous collective expenses. On the first day of their fundraiser, they receive $600. On the second day, they receive $900, and on the third day, they receive $400. For the next 4 days, they receive only half of what they raised on the first 3 days. How much more money does each person need to raise for them to reach their goal? All together, they need to raise ($450 x 6) + $3000 = $<<450*6+3000=5700>>5700 The raised $600 + $900 + $400 = $<<600+900+400=1900>>1900 the first 3 days. For the next 4 days, they only raised $1900/2 = $<<1900/2=950>>950 In the week, they raised $1900 + $950 = $<<1900+950=2850>>2850 They still need $5700 - $2850 = $<<5700-2850=2850>>2850 Each person still needs $2850/6 = $<<2850/6=475>>475 #### 475 Janessa has a plan to give her brother Dexter his first collection of baseball cards. She currently has 4 cards in addition to the 13 that her father gave her. She ordered a collection of 36 cards from eBay. After inspecting the cards she found 4 cards are in bad shape and decides to throw them away. Janessa ended up giving Dexter 29 cards. How many cards did Janessa keep for herself? Janessa starts with 4 cards + 13 cards = <<4+13=17>>17 cards. She adds 17 cards + 36 cards = <<17+36=53>>53 cards from the eBay purchase. Janessa decides to throw away 53 cards - 4 cards = <<53-4=49>>49 cards due to damage. After giving Dexter the present we know that Janessa kept 49 cards - 29 cards = <<49-29=20>>20 cards for herself. #### 20 Page collects fancy shoes and has 80 pairs in her closet. She decides to donate 30% of her collection that she no longer wears. After dropping off her donation, she treats herself and buys 6 more pairs to add to her collection. How many shoes does she have now? She donates 30% of her 80 pairs of shoes so that’s .30*80 = <<30*.01*80=24>>24 pair of shoes she donates She had 80 shoes in her collection and donates 24 so that leaves 80-24 = <<80-24=56>>56 pairs of shoes She now has 56 pairs of shoes and buys 6 more pairs so her collection is now 56+6 = <<56+6=62>>62 pairs of shoes #### 62
