Arthur makes $100 because .05 x 2000 =

<<.05*2000=100>>100 Arthur can buy 16 comic books because 100 / 6= 16 and (2/3) The comic books cost $96 because 16 x 6 = <<16*6=96>>96 He has $4 leftover because 100 - 96 = <<100-96=4>>4 #### 4 Bobby wanted pancakes for breakfast. The recipe on the box makes 21 pancakes. While he ate 5 pancakes, his dog jumped up and was able to eat 7 before being caught. How many pancakes does Bobby have left? Bobby ate 5 pancakes and his dog ate 7 so 5+7 = <<5+7=12>>12 The recipe makes 21 pancakes and 12 were eaten so 21-12 = <<21-12=9>>9 pancakes were left #### 9 In the matrix, there are seven fewer noodles than pirates. If there are 45 pirates, how many noodles and pirates are there in total? In the matrix, there are seven fewer noodles than pirates, meaning there are 45-7=<<45-7=38>>38 noodles. The number of noodles and pirates in the matrix is 38+45=<<38+45=83>>83 #### 83 The bakery has 8 indoor tables and 12 outdoor tables. Each indoor table has 3 chairs and each outdoor table has 3 chairs. How many chairs are there in total? There are 8 x 3 = <<8*3=24>>24 indoor chairs. There are 12 x 3 = <<12*3=36>>36 outdoor chairs. In total there are 24 + 36 = <<24+36=60>>60 chairs #### 60 Malcolm has 240 followers on Instagram and 500 followers on Facebook. The number of followers he has on Twitter is half the number of followers he has on Instagram and Facebook combined. Meanwhile, the number of followers he has on TikTok is 3 times the number of followers is has on Twitter, and he has 510 more followers on Youtube than he has on TikTok. How many followers does Malcolm have on all his social media? Malcolm has 240 followers + 500 followers = <<240+500=740>>740 followers on Instagram and Facebook. He has 740 followers / 2 = <<740/2=370>>370 followers on Twitter. He has 370 followers x 3 = <<370*3=1110>>1110 followers on Tiktok. He has 1110 followers + 510 followers = <<1110+510=1620>>1620 followers on Youtube. Altogether, Malcolm has 740 followers + 370 followers + 1110 followers + 1620 followers = <<740+370+1110+1620=3840>>3840 followers on social media. #### 3840 Geordie takes a toll road on his drive to work and back every day of his five-day workweek. The toll is $12.50 per car or $7 per motorcycle. Both his car and his motorcycle get 35 miles per gallon of gas and the commute to work is 14 miles. Gas costs him $3.75 per gallon. Geordie drives his car to work three times a week and his motorcycle to work twice a week. How many dollars does he spend driving to work and back on the same route in a week? Geordie pays 12.50 * 3 = $<<12.50*3=37.50>>37.50 for car tolls driving to work three times a week. He pays 7 * 2 = $<<7*2=14>>14 for motorcycle tolls driving to work twice a week. He drives 14 * 5 = <<14*5=70>>70 miles to work each five-day workweek. He uses 70 / 35 = <<70/35=2>>2 gallons of gas on the drive. He spends 3.75 * 2 = $<<3.75*2=7.50>>7.50 on gas each week. Thus, he spends 37.50 + 14 + 7.50 = $<<37.50+14+7.50=59>>59 driving to work. Since he drives to work and back from work, he spends 59 * 2 = $<<59*2=118>>118 a week. #### 118 Barney's grocery store sold out all of its items at the beginning of the pandemic, so they ordered extra items to restock the shelves. However, they ended up ordering far too much and have to keep the leftover items in the storeroom. If they ordered 4458 items, sold another 1561 items that day, and have 575 items in the storeroom, how many items do they have left in the whole store? Barney's grocery store started with 0 items + 4458 they ordered = <<0+4458=4458>>4458 items total. That day they sold 1561 items, so 4458 total - 1561 sold = <<4458-1561=2897>>2897 items. If there are 575 items in the storeroom, then there are 575 + 2897 = <<575+2897=3472>>3472 items in the whole store. #### 3,472 Carla's order at Mcdonald's costs $7.50, but she has a coupon for $2.50. If she gets an additional 20% discount for being a senior citizen, how much does she pay for her order in dollars total? First subtract the coupon amount from the price of the food: $7.50 - $2.50 = $<<7.5-2.5=5.00>>5.00 Then subtract 20% from 100% to find out what percentage of the reduced price Carla pays: 100% - 20% = 80% Now multiply the price after the coupon by the percentage Carla pays to find the final price: $5.00 * .8 = $<<5*.8=4.00>>4.00 #### 4 Carla is dividing up chores for her two kids, Anna and Billy. She wants each of them to spend the same number of minutes working. Sweeping takes 3 minutes per room, washing the dishes takes 2 minutes per dish, and doing laundry takes 9 minutes per load. If Anna does the sweeping for 10 rooms and Billy does two loads of laundry, how many dishes should Billy wash so they spend the same amount of time doing chores? First find the total time Billy spends on laundry: 2 loads * 9 minutes/load = <<2*9=18>>18 minutes Then find the total time Anna spends sweeping: 3 minutes/room * 10 rooms = <<3*10=30>>30 minutes Then find how much longer Anna has already worked than Billy: 30 minutes - 18 minutes = <<30-18=12>>12 minutes Then divide the difference in work time by the time to wash one dish to find the number of dishes Billy has to wash to work the same amount of time as Anna: 12 minutes / 2 minutes/dish = <<12/2=6>>6 dishes #### 6 Uncle Ben has 440 chickens on his farm. 39 are roosters and the rest are hens. 15 of his hens do not lay eggs, and the rest do. If each egg-laying hen lays 3 eggs, how many eggs will Uncle Ben have? Uncle Ben has 440 chickens - 39 roosters = <<440-39=401>>401 hens. Uncle Ben has 401 hens - 15 that don't lay eggs = <<401-15=386>>386 hens that lay eggs. The egg-laying hens each lay 3 eggs * 386 hens = <<3*386=1158>>1158 eggs. #### 1158
