Clementine, Jake, and Tory make cookies for the school bake sale. Clementine baked 72 cookies. Jake baked twice as many cookies as Clementine. Tory baked half as many cookies as Jake and Clementine combined. They sell their cookies for $2 each. If they sell all their cookies, how much money do they make?

Clementine baked 72 cookies.

Jake baked 72 x 2 =

<<72*2=144>>144 cookies. Tory baked 216 / 2 = <<216/2=108>>108 cookies. Together they baked 72 + 144 + 108 = <<72+144+108=324>>324 cookies They raised 324 x 2 = $ <<324*2=648>>648 #### 648 A dog is being treated for fleas. One flea treatment gets rid of half the fleas. After four treatments, the dog has 14 fleas left. How many more fleas did the dog have before the flea treatments than after? After three treatments, the dog had 14 * 2 = <<14*2=28>>28 fleas. After two treatments, the dog had 28 * 2 = <<28*2=56>>56 fleas. After one treatment, the dog had 56 * 2 = <<56*2=112>>112 fleas. Before any treatments, the dog had 112 * 2 = <<112*2=224>>224 fleas. Thus, the dog had 224 - 14 = <<224-14=210>>210 more fleas before the treatments than after. #### 210 Between them, Mark and Sarah have 24 traffic tickets. Mark has twice as many parking tickets as Sarah, and they each have an equal number of speeding tickets. If Sarah has 6 speeding tickets, how many parking tickets does Mark have? First figure out how many total speeding tickets the two people got by adding the 6 speeding tickets Sarah got to the equal number (6) that Mark got: 6 + 6 = <<6+6=12>>12 Now subtract the combined number of speeding tickets from the total number of tickets to find the combined number of parking tickets: 24 - 12 = <<24-12=12>>12 Now express Mark's number of parking tickets in terms of the number of parking tickets Sarah got: m = <<2=2>>2s We know that m + s = 12, so substitute in the value of m from the previous step to get 2s + s = 12 Combine like terms to get 3s = 12 Divide both sides of the equation to get s = <<4=4>>4 Now multiply the number of parking tickets Sarah got by 2 to find the number Mark got: 4 * 2 = <<4*2=8>>8 #### 8 Cooper makes 7 apple pies a day. He does this for 12 days. Ashley then eats 50 of his pies. How many apple pies remain with Cooper? The number of pies Cooper makes in 12 days is 7 pies/day * 12 days = <<7*12=84>>84 apple pies. After Ashley eats 50 of them, there are 84 pies – 50 pies = <<84-50=34>>34 apple pies. #### 34 Lindsey bought 2 exercise bands to intensify her workout. Each band adds an extra 5 pounds of resistance to her workout. If she doubles up both sets of bands and places them around her legs and picks up a 10-pound dumbbell, how much weight will she squat? She has 2 exercise bands that are both 5 pounds of resistance so that’s 2*5 = <<2*5=10>>10 pounds She has a pair of 10-pound dumbbells so that’s 2*10 = <<10*2=20>>20 pounds With both the bands and dumbbells, she will squat 10+20 = <<10+20=30>>30 pounds #### 30 Wendy just started working at an Italian restaurant. She polished 50 small glasses and 10 more large glasses than small glasses. How many glasses did she polish? She polished 50 + 10 = <<50+10=60>>60 large glasses. Therefore, Wendy polished 50 + 60 = <<50+60=110>>110 glasses. #### 110 Miss Darlington has a basket of 20 blueberries. She picked 9 more baskets with the same amount of berries. How many blueberries did Miss Darlington have in all? Miss Darlington picked 9 x 20 = <<9*20=180>>180 blueberries more. So she had a total of 180 + 20 = <<180+20=200>>200 blueberries. #### 200 In a basketball game, Jon scored 3 points. Jack scored 5 points more than Jon, and Tom scored 4 less than the points of Jon and Jack together. How many points did they score altogether? Jack scored 3 + 5 = <<3+5=8>>8 points. Together, Jon and Jack scored 8 + 3 = <<8+3=11>>11 points. So, Tom scored 11 - 4 = <<11-4=7>>7 points. Thus, Jon, Jack, and Tom scored a total of 3 + 8 + 7 = <<3+8+7=18>>18 points. #### 18 In a shipping container, there are 10 crates. Each crate is filled with 6 boxes and each box is filled with 4 washing machines. A worker removes 1 washing machine from each box. There are no other changes. How many washing machines were removed from the shipping container? Initially, there were 6 boxes * 4 washing machines per box = <<6*4=24>>24 washing machines in each crate. So there were 24 washing machines per crate * 10 crates = <<24*10=240>>240 washing machines in the shipping container. A worker removes 1 washing machine from each box so there are now 4 original washing machines - 1 removed washing machine = <<4-1=3>>3 washing machines in each box. This means there are 6 boxes * 3 washing machines per box = <<6*3=18>>18 washing machines in each crate. So there are now 18 washing machines per crate * 10 crates = <<18*10=180>>180 washing machines in the shipping container. The difference is how many machine washing machines were removed which is 240 initial washing machines – 180 current washing machines = <<240-180=60>>60 washing machines. #### 60 Darnell has 1000 square feet of fabric that he's using to make mini flags. He makes square flags that are 4 feet by 4 feet, wide rectangular flags that are 5 feet by 3 feet, and tall rectangular flags that are 3 feet by 5 feet. He has already made 16 square flags, 20 wide flags, and 10 tall flags. How many square feet of fabric does he have left? The square flags use 16 square feet of fabric per flag because four times four equals <<4*4=16>>16 The wide flags each use 15 feet of fabric per flag because five times three equals <<5*3=15>>15 The tall flags each use 15 feet of fabric per flag because five times three equals <<5*3=15>>15 He has used 256 square feet for the square flags because 16 times 16 equals <<16*16=256>>256 He has used 300 square feet for the wide flags because 20 times 15 equals <<20*15=300>>300 He has used 150 square feet for the tall flags because ten times 15 equals 150. He has used 706 square feet because 256 plus 300 plus 150 equals <<256+300+150=706>>706. He has 294 square feet left because 1,000 minus 706 equals <<1000-706=294>>294 #### 294
