Every subsequent day, she doubles the distance she walked the previous day. On what day does she walk more than 10 times further than she did on the first day? Trish walks 1 mile on the first day, and since she walks double the previous day's amount each day that means she walks 1*2=<<1*2=2>>2 miles the second day. On the following day, she walks double the distance of the previous day's total of 2 miles, meaning she walks 2*2=<<2*2=4>>4 miles that day. On the following day, she walks double the distance of the previous day's total of 4 miles, meaning she walks 4*2=<<4*2=8>>8 miles that day. On the following day, she walks double the distance of the previous day's total of 8 miles, meaning she walks 8*2=<<8*2=16>>16 miles that day. As we're looking for the first day that her distance exceeds 10 times her original total, that means we're seeking a mile total of greater than or equal to 10*1= <<10*1=10>>10 miles, Since she accomplished this on the 5th day of walking, the answer is <<5=5>>5. #### 5 Jake is from a conservative household so during lunch at school one day, he gave one-quarter of his feeding allowance to a hungry friend. If candies cost 20 cents apiece and Jake's feeding allowance is $4, how many candies can his friend purchase with the money Jake gave to him? One quarter of $4 is (1/4)*$4 = $<<(1/4)*4=1>>1 $1 is equivalent to 100 cents 20 cents will buy 1 candy so 100 cents will buy 100/20 = <<100/20=5>>5 candies #### 5 A boy runs 1.5 km in 45 minutes. What is his speed in kilometers per hour? Since 1 hour is equal to 60 minutes, then 45 minutes is equal to 45/60 = <<45/60=0.75>>0.75 hours. Then, the speed in kilometers per hour is 1.5 km/0.75 hour = 2 kilometers per hour. #### 2 There are three buckets full of oranges. There are 22 oranges in the first bucket, 17 more oranges in the second bucket and 11 fewer oranges in the third bucket than in the second. How many oranges are there in all the buckets? There are 22 + 17 = <<22+17=39>>39 oranges in the second bucket. There are 39 - 11 = <<39-11=28>>28 oranges in the third bucket. There's a total of 22 + 39 + 28 = <<22+39+28=89>>89 oranges in the three buckets. #### 89 Chalktown High School had their prom last weekend. There were 123 students who attended. If 3 students attended on their own, how many couples came to the prom? There were 123 students – 3 single attendees = <<123-3=120>>120 students in couples. 120 students / 2 in a couple = <<120/2=60>>60 couples. #### 60 Mancino is tending 3 gardens that each measure 16 feet by 5 feet. His sister, Marquita, is tilling the soil for two gardens that each measure 8 feet by 4 feet. How many square feet combined are in all their gardens? 3 * (16 * 5) = <<3*(16*5)=240>>240 square feet 2 * (8 * 4) = <<2*(8*4)=64>>64 square feet 240 + 64 = <<240+64=304>>304 square feet The gardens have a total of 304 square feet. #### 304 Nine members of the crafts club are making 2 necklaces each. It takes 50 beads to make each necklace. How many beads will they need in all? Two bracelets need 50 x 2 = <<50*2=100>>100 beads. So they will need 9 x 100 = <<9*100=900>>900 beads in all. #### 900 Eunice has 10 eggplant seeds and 4 pots. How many seeds will be planted in the fourth pot if 3 seeds can be planted in 1 pot? Eunice can plant a total of 3 pots x 3 seeds = <<3*3=9>>9 seeds in three pots. So, only 10 - 9 = <<10-9=1>>1 eggplant seed will be planted in the fourth pot. #### 1 Archibald and his brother are playing tennis against each other. Archibald has won 12 games and his brother has won 18. What percentage of games has Archibald won? They have played 30 total games because 12 + 18 = <<12+18=30>>30 The proportion won by Archibald is .4 because 12 / 30 = <<12/30=.4>>.4 The percentage he has won in 40% because .4 x 100% = 40% #### 40
