Four small panda bears and five bigger panda bears eat 25 pounds and 40 pounds of fresh bamboo sprouts every day, respectively. How many pounds of bamboo do the 9 pandas eat in a week?

The small panda bears eat a total of 4 x 25 =

<<4*25=100>>100 pounds of bamboo every day. The bigger panda bears eat a total of 5 x 40 = <<5*40=200>>200 pounds of bamboo every day. So, the 9 pandas eat a total of 100 + 200 = <<100+200=300>>300 pounds of bamboo every day. Therefore, they eat a total of 300 x 7 = <<300*7=2100>>2100 pounds in a week. #### 2100 Violet is trying to figure out whether she should buy a family pass to the aquarium for $120 or pay for tickets separately. If adult tickets cost $35 and children's tickets cost $20, and Violet's family has 1 adult and 6 children, how much will she pay if she buys separate tickets? First find the total cost of the children's tickets: 6 children * $20/child = $<<6*20=120>>120 Then add the cost of the adult ticket to find the total cost: $120 + $35 = $<<120+35=155>>155 #### 155 Liam is teaching art to a group of 10 students. He has 20 art kits that he hands out to the students to share, 1 art kit for 2 students. From those art kits half the students make 3 artworks each and half the students make 4 artworks each. How many artistic works does the whole class create? There are 10 students in Liam's art class and 1/2 of them make a different amount of artworks than the other half, 1/2 x 10 = <<10-5=5>>5 students. 5 students make 3 artworks each, 5 x 3 = <<5*3=15>>15 artworks. The other 5 students make 4 artworks each, 5 x 4 = <<5*4=20>>20 artworks. Combined, the students in the class make 15 + 20 = <<15+20=35>>35 artworks. #### 35 Lara is baking cookies using four baking trays. She places five rows of cookies on a baking tray where there are six cookies in one row. How many cookies is she baking? Lara can bake 5 x 6 = <<5*6=30>>30 cookies in one tray. So, Lara is baking a total of 30 x 4 = <<30*4=120>>120 cookies. #### 120 John repairs 5 cars. 3 of the cars take 40 minutes each to repair. The remaining ones take 50% longer each to repair.

If he wants to add a home office/personal gym divided space that is twice as large as his bedroom and bathroom, how much sq ft will this new room have? His bedroom is 309 sq ft and his bathroom is 150 sq ft so these two rooms are 309+150 = <<309+150=459>>459 sq ft He wants the new room to be twice as large as his bedroom/bathroom that is 459 sq so the new room is 2*459 = <<2*459=918>>918 sq ft #### 918 Julian has 80 Facebook friends. 60% are boys and 40% are girls. Boyd has twice as many friends who are girls and has 100 friends total. What percentage of Boyd’s friends are boys? Julian's number of friends who are girls is .40*80 = <<.40*80=32>>32 Boyd has twice as many friends as Julian who are girls, a total of 2*32 = <<2*32=64>>64 If Boyd has 100 friends, he has 100-64 = <<100-64=36>>36 boys The percentage of boys in Boyd's Facebook friends is 36/100*100 = <<36/100*100=36>>36 #### 36 To run his grocery store, Mr. Haj needs $4000 a day. This money is used to pay for orders done, delivery costs and employees' salaries. If he spends 2/5 of the total operation costs on employees' salary and 1/4 of the remaining amount on delivery costs, how much money does he pay for the orders done? The total amount of money Mr. Haj used to pay for employee salary is 2/5*$4000 = $<<2/5*4000=1600>>1600 After paying the employee salaries, Mr. Haj remains with $4000-$1600 = $<<4000-1600=2400>>2400 He also uses 1/4*$2400= $<<2400/4=600>>600 on delivery costs. The remaining amount of money that he uses to pay for orders is $2400-$600 = $<<2400-600=1800>>1800 #### 1800 John works 12 hours every other day. He gets a 30% raise from his former $20 an hour job. How much does he make in a 30 day month?
