Jack has $45 and 36 euros. If each euro is worth two dollars, how much money does he have total in dollars?
First find how much the euros are worth in dollars: 36 euros * $2/euro = $
<<36*2=72>>72 Then add that to the amount Jack has in dollars: $72 + $45 = $<<72+45=117>>117 #### 117 Felix is chopping down trees in his backyard. For every 13 trees he chops down he needs to get his axe resharpened. It cost him $5 to sharpen his axe. If he spends $35 on axe sharpening, at least how many trees has he chopped down? He has sharpened in 7 times because 35 / 5 = <<35/5=7>>7 He has chopped down 91 trees because 7 x 13 = <<7*13=91>>91 #### 91 The school band is having a car wash to raise money. Their goal is to collect $150. So far they have earned $10 each from three families and $5 each from 15 families. How much more money do they have to earn to reach their goal? The school band earned $10/family * 3 families = $<<10*3=30>>30 from three families. The school band earned $15/family * 5 families = $<<15*5=75>>75 from 15 families. The school band earned $30 + $75 = $<<30+75=105>>105 total. The school band needs $150 - $105 = $<<150-105=45>>45 more to reach their goal. #### 45 Mary and her two friends agreed to evenly pay for the cost of 2 pounds of chicken. Mary's mother went to the grocery and bought the 2-pound chicken, 3 pounds of beef that cost $4 per pound, and a liter of oil that costs $1. If Mary's mother paid a total of $16 for the grocery, how much should Mary and her two friends pay each for the chicken? Three pounds of beef cost $4 x 3 = $<<4*3=12>>12. Mary's mother paid $12 + $1 = $<<12+1=13>>13 for the beef and oil. Hence, the 2-pound chicken cost $16 - $13 = $<<16-13=3>>3. There are 1 (Mary) + 2 friends = <<1+2=3>>3 people who will split the $3 cost. Therefore, each of them will pay $3/3 = $<<3/3=1>>1. #### 1 Jack bought 55 apples. He wants to give 10 to his father and then equally share the remaining apples between him and his 4 friends. How many apples will each of them get? The number of apples remaining after Jack gave his father 10 is 55 - 10 = <<55-10=45>>45. The share each one of his friends including him will get is 45 / 5 = <<45/5=9>>9. #### 9 Trey is hanging wall decorations around his house. He uses a nail for each of two-thirds of them, a thumbtack for each of two-fifths of the rest, and a sticky strip for each of the other decorations. He used 15 sticky strips. How many nails did Trey use? Trey used 15 sticky strips for 3/5 of the remaining decorations after using nails, so he used 15 * / 3/5 = 25 thumbtacks and sticky strips The 25 decorations were 1/3 of the total decorations, so he used 25 / 1/3 = 75 total decorations The nails were 2/3 of the decorations, so Trey used 75 decorations * 2/3 = <<2/3*75=50>>50 nails #### 50 Aubrie has four cards with the labels W, X, Y, Z printed on them. W is tagged with the number 200, X is tagged with half the number W is tagged with, Y is tagged with the total of X and W's tags and Z is tagged with the number 400. Calculate the total of all the tagged numbers. If the card with the letter X has half the number the card with letter W has, it has 1/2*200= 100 Together, cards with letters W and X have tags that total 100+200 = <<100+200=300>>300. If the card with the letter Y has the total of the numbers cards with letters, W and X have, then the total for cards with letters W, X, and Y is 300+300 = 600 Since the card with the letter Z has a tag of 200, the total of the numbers the tags have is 600+400= 1000 #### 1000 A box holds 2 dozen doughnuts. If the family ate 8 doughnuts, how many doughnuts are left? Two dozens of doughnuts are equal to 2 x 12 = <<2*12=24>>24 doughnuts. Since 8 doughnuts were eaten, therefore 24 - 8 = <<24-8=16>>16 doughnuts are left. #### 16 Zander collected 100 stickers. He gave some of his stickers to his two friends, Andrew and Bill. Andrew received 1/5 of Zander's stickers, while Bill received 3/10 of the remaining stickers. How many stickers did Andrew give to his two friends? Andrew received 100 x 1/5 = <<100*1/5=20>>20 stickers. So, there were 100 - 20 = <<100-20=80>>80 stickers left. Bill received 80 x 3/10 = <<80*3/10=24>>24 stickers. Therefore, Andrew gave away 20 + 24 = <<20+24=44>>44 stickers. #### 44 The area of a triangle with a given base and height is given by 1/2*base*height. What is the base length of a triangle with height 8 and area 24 square units? Let b be the base of the triangle (1/2)*b*8=24. 4*b=24 b=<<6=6>>6 #### 6
