Jimmy has a collection of 5 action figures. Each figure is worth $15, except for one which is worth $20. He decided to sell his collection. To do it fast he decided to sell each of them for $5 less than their value. How much will Jimmy earn if he sells all the figures?

Four of the five figures are worth 4 * 15 = $

<<4*15=60>>60. With one more expensive figure, they are all worth 60 + 20 = $<<60+20=80>>80. On all action figures, Jimmy will lose 5 * 5 = $<<5*5=25>>25 if he sells them cheaper. So if Jimmy sells the figures he will get 80 - 25 = $<<80-25=55>>55. #### 55 Sam has 3 German Shepherds and 4 French Bulldogs. Peter wants to buy 3 times as many German Shepherds as Sam has and 2 times as many French Bulldogs as Sam has. How many dogs does Peter want to have? Peter wants to have 3 * 3 = <<3*3=9>>9 German Shepherd dogs. He wants to have 2 * 4 = <<2*4=8>>8 French Bulldogs. So, Peter wants to have 9 + 8 = <<9+8=17>>17 dogs. #### 17 James buys 2 puzzles that are 2000 pieces each. He anticipates for these larger puzzles he can do 100 pieces every 10 minutes. So how long would it take to finish both puzzles? His speed means he can do 10/100=<<10/100=.1>>.1 minute per piece So he can finish 1 puzzle in 2000*.1=<<2000*.1=200>>200 minutes So these two puzzles take 200*2=<<200*2=400>>400 minutes #### 400 There are 14 chickens in the coop, and twice that many in the run. There is 4 less than double the number of chickens free ranging as in the run. How many chickens are free ranging? Coop:14 chickens Run:14(2)=28 chickens Free Range:28(2)-4=52 chickens #### 52 Larry spent $5 for lunch and gave his brother $2. How much did Larry have at the beginning if he has $15 now? Larry spent a total of $5 + $2 = $<<5+2=7>>7. He has $15 + $7 = $<<15+7=22>>22 at the beginning. #### 22 The population of Mojave was 4000 a decade ago. If the town's population has increased three times, and the population analysis firm predicts that it will increase by 40% after five years, how many people will be in Mojave in five years? Since the population of Mojave has increased three times the number it was a decade ago, there are 3*4000 = <<3*4000=12000>>12000 people in Mojave now. It's predicted that the population will increase by 40/100*12000 = <<40/100*12000=4800>>4800 people after five years. This means there will be 12000+4800 = <<12000+4800=16800>>16800 people living in Mojave in five years. #### 16800 Lorie has 2 pieces of $100 bills. He requested to change one piece of the $100 bills into $50 bills. Half of the remaining $100 bill is changed to $10 bills while the rest is changed to $5 bills. How many pieces of bills will she have? There will be $100/$50 = <<100/50=2>>2 pieces of $50 when $100 is changed to $50 bills. Half of $100 is $100/2 = $<<100/2=50>>50. So there will be $50/$10 = <<50/10=5>>5 pieces of $10 when $50 is changed to $10 bills. The remaining $50 will be changed to $5 bills so there will be $50/$5 = <<50/5=10>>10 pieces of $5 bills. So in total, Lorie will have 2 $50 bills + 5 $10 bills + 10 $5 bills = <<2+5+10=17>>17 pieces of bills. #### 17 In four years, Annika will be three times as old as Hans. If Hans is now 8 years old, how old is Annika now? In four years, Hans will be 8+4=<<8+4=12>>12 years old. Then Annika will be 12*3=<<12*3=36>>36 years old. So Annika right now is 36-4=<<36-4=32>>32 years old. #### 32 Jorge bought 24 tickets for $7 each. For purchasing so many, he is given a discount of 50%. How much, in dollars, did he spend on tickets? Jorge spent 24 tickets * $7 per ticket = $<<24*7=168>>168 total. After applying the discount, Jorge spent $168 * 0.50 = $<<168*0.50=84>>84. #### 84 From Monday to Friday, Elle practices piano for 30 minutes. On Saturday, she practices piano three times as much as on a weekday. There is no practice on Sunday. How many hours does Elle spend practicing piano each week? From Monday to Friday, Elle practices 0.50 x 5 = <<0.50*5=2.5>>2.5 hours. On Saturday, she practices 0.50 x 3 = <<0.50*3=1.5>>1.5 hours. Each week, Elle practices piano for 2.5 + 1.5 = <<2.5+1.5=4>>4 hours. #### 4
