Aubriella is pouring water into a 50-gallon fish tank at the rate of 1 gallon every 20 seconds. How many more gallons will she have to pour into the tank to fill the tank if she poured water into the fish tank for 6 minutes?

When she poured water into the gallon for 6 minutes, the total time in seconds she took is 6 minutes * 60 seconds/minute =

<<6*60=360>>360 seconds. If in 20 seconds she poured 1 gallon of water into the tank, in 360 seconds, she poured 360 seconds / 20 seconds/gallon = <<360/20/1=18>>18 gallons of water into the tank. Aubriella will have to pour 50 gallons - 18 gallons = <<50-18=32>>32 more gallons into the tank to fill the tank. #### 32 Porter is a painter who creates beautiful paintings of wild animals. Most recently, he painted a mural of a pack of wolves standing on a snowy-white mountainside underneath a full moon. He put the painting up for auction and it sold for $1000 less than five times more than he had made on his previous painting. If he received $44,000 for the sale of his most recent painting, how much, in dollars, did he make for selling his previous painting? If $44,000 is $1000 less than five times more than he had made on his previous painting, then $44,000+$1000 = $45,000 is five times what he made on his previous painting. If $45,000 is five times what he made for his previous painting, then he made $45,000/5 = $<<45000/5=9000>>9,000 for selling his previous painting. #### 9,000 James runs a TV show and there are 5 main characters and 4 minor characters. He pays the minor characters $15,000 each episode. He paid the major characters three times as much. How much does he pay per episode? He pays the minor characters 15000*4=$<<15000*4=60000>>60,000 The major characters each get 15000*3=$<<15000*3=45000>>45,000 So he pays the main characters 45,000*5=$<<45000*5=225000>>225,000 So in total he pays 225,000+60,000=$<<225000+60000=285000>>285,000 #### 285,000 Marco uses a fifth of an ounce of dry tea leaves to brew his morning cup of tea each day. He buys tea leaves in boxes of 28 ounces. How many weeks of daily tea does Marco get from a box? Marco gets 28 / 1/5 = 28 * 5 = 140 cups of tea from a box. At 7 days a week, Marco gets 140 / 7 = <<140/7=20>>20 weeks of daily tea from a box. #### 20 A bond paper ream has 500 sheets and costs $27. An office needs 5000 sheets of bond paper. How much will it cost to buy their needed sheets of paper? An office needs to buy 5000/500 = <<5000/500=10>>10 reams of bond paper. So, it will cost 10 x $27 = $<<10*27=270>>270. #### 270 A factory manufactures cars with 5 doors. The factory was planning to produce 200 cars but due to metal shortages, they decreased the production by 50 cars. Due to a pandemic, they also had to cut production by another 50%. How many doors will the factory produce? The factory due to shortages will produce 200 - 50 = <<200-50=150>>150 cars. Due to the pandemic, they will now produce 150 / 2 = <<150/2=75>>75 cars. The company will have to manufacture 75 * 5 = <<75*5=375>>375 doors. #### 375 There were 50 candies left in a bowl after Shelly ate 20 candies the previous week. Her friend comes over, bringing twice as much candy as she originally had. Shelly adds this to the bowl and they decide to divide them equally. How much candy did her friend have after eating 10 of her candies? The total number of candies Shelley had before eating some is 50 + 20 = <<50+20=70>>70 candies. When her friend came over, she brought 2*70 = <<2*70=140>>140 candies. The total number of candies in the bowl is now 140+50= <<140+50=190>>190 candies. When they divide this equally between them, each gets 190/2 = <<190/2=95>>95 candies. When Shelly’s friend eats 10 of her candies, she still has 95-10 = <<95-10=85>>85 candies. #### 85 There are 180 days in a school year. A senior can skip their final exams if they miss 5% or less of the school year. Hazel has missed 6 days of school due to illness. How many more days can she miss and still not have to take her exams? There are 180 days in the school year and she can miss up to 5% so that’s 180*.05 = <<180*.05=9>>9 days Hazel has been sick 6 days already and she can only miss 9 days or less so she can miss 9-6 = <<9-6=3>>3 more days #### 3 Last night Kannon had 3 apples, a banana, and 4 oranges for dinner. Today she is planning to have 4 more apples than last night, 10 times as many bananas as she ate last night, and twice as many oranges as apples she'll have today. How many fruits would she have eaten so far in the two meals? The total number of fruits that Kannon ate last is 3 apples+1 banana+4 oranges = <<3+1+4=8>>8 Since last night Kannon had 3 apples, today she'll eat 3+4 = <<3+4=7>>7 apples. She is also planning to eat 10 times as many bananas as she ate last night, a total of 1*10 = <<10=10>>10 bananas. Kannon will also eat twice as many oranges as apples she'll have today, which means she'll eat 7*2 = <<7*2=14>>14 oranges. Tonight Kannon will eat 14 oranges+10 bananas +7 apples = <<14+10+7=31>>31 fruits In total, after tonight, Kannon would have eaten 31+8 = <<31+8=39>>39 fruits. #### 39 A 10 meters yarn was cut into 5 equal parts. If 3 parts were used for crocheting, how long was used for crocheting? Each part is 10/5 = <<10/5=2>>2 meters long. Therefore, 2 x 3 = <<2*3=6>>6 meters of yarn were used for crocheting. #### 6
