A rival football team has won twice as many matches as the home team they will be playing did. If records show that the home team has won three matches, and each team drew four matches and lost none, how many matches have both teams played in total?

The rival team won twice as many as the home team who won 3 matches so they won 2*3 =

<<2*3=6>>6 matches They both drew 4 matches each for a total of 2*4 = 8 matches The total number of matches played is 3+6+8 = <<3+6+8=17>>17 matches #### 17 Kelsey turned 25 in 1999. Her older sister was born 3 years before Kelsey. It's currently 2021. How old is Kelsey's older sister? Kelsey turned 25 in 1999 so she was born in 1999-25 = <<1974=1974>>1974 Kelsey's sister is older by 3 years so she was born in 1974-3 = <<1974-3=1971>>1971 It's currently 2021 and Kelsey's sister was born in 1971 so she is 2021-1971 = <<2021-1971=50>>50 years old #### 50 Luis is driving 80 miles in 2 hours. How far will he go in 15 minutes? Luis drives 80/2 = <<80/2=40>>40 miles in 1 hour. Since there are 60 minutes in 1 hour, then he drives 40/60 = 2/3 of a mile in 1 minute. So in 15 minutes, he will go 2/3 x 15 = <<2/3*15=10>>10 miles far. #### 10 The number of goals scored in a game against Barca by exactly two players last season accounts for 20% of all goals scored in the league. If the players scored an equal number of goals, and the total number of goals scored in the league against Barca that season is 300, calculate the number of goals each of the two players scored. If the total number of goals scored in the league that season against Barca is 300, the two players scored 20/100*300=<<300*20/100=60>>60 goals. If the players scored an equal number of goals, each scored 60/2=<<60/2=30>>30 goals. #### 30 Jesse is playing with a pile of building blocks. He first builds a building with 80 building blocks. Then he builds a farmhouse with 123 building blocks. He adds a fenced-in area next to the farm made of 57 building blocks. If Jesse has 84 building blocks left, how many building blocks did he start with? Jesse built three structures out of building blocks, 80 + 123 + 57 = <<80+123+57=260>>260 building blocks. Jesse started with 260 + 84 leftover building blocks = <<260+84=344>>344 building blocks that Jesse had originally. #### 344 Sandra had 2 different bags of candy. Each of her bags had 6 pieces of candy left. Her brother, Roger, also had 2 bags of candy. One of his bags of candy had 11 pieces left and the other had 3 pieces left. How much more candy did Roger have? Sandra had 2 bags that each contained 6 pieces of candy so 2*6 = <<2*6=12>>12 pieces Roger had 11 pieces of candy in one bag and 3 pieces in the other so 11+3 = <<11+3=14>>14 pieces Roger had 14 pieces and Sandra had 12 pieces so Roger has 14-12 = <<14-12=2>>2 more pieces of candy #### 2 Five dozens of people are attending your family reunion. Your family was assigned to bring the cans of soda. Each box of soda contains 10 cans and costs $2 per box. It was assumed that each person can consume 2 cans of soda. If you are six in the family and agreed to pay equally for the cost, how much will each of your family members pay? Five dozens of people is equal to 5 x 12 = <<5*12=60>>60. 60 x 2 = <<60*2=120>>120 cans of soda are needed. So, this means 120/10 = <<120/10=12>>12 boxes of soda must be purchased. Thus, it will amount to $2 x 12 = $<<24=24>>24. Therefore, each family member will pay $24/6 = $<<24/6=4>>4. #### 4 Joanne makes $16.00 working at her main job for 8 hours a day. She has a part-time job, working an extra 2 hours a day where she makes $13.50 an hour. How much money does she make if she works this schedule 5 days a week? She works 8 hours a day at $16.00 an hour so she makes 8*16 = $<<8*16=128.00>>128.00 a day She works this job 5 days a week so she makes 128*5 = $<<128*5=640.00>>640.00 in 5 days She works 2 hours a day at $13.50 an hour so she makes 2*13.50 = $<<2*13.50=27.00>>27.00 a day She works this job 5 days a week so she makes 27*5 = $<<27*5=135.00>>135.00 She makes $640 at her main job and $135 at her part-time job so all total she makes 640+135 = $<<640+135=775.00>>775.00 in 5 days #### 775 It's Mother's day, so mothers get a 10% discount on the department store. Mothers who have 3 children or more can get an additional 4% off the discounted price. If Mrs. Brown has 4 children and wants to buy a pair of shoes that costs $125, how much will she pay? Mrs. Brown has a $125 x 10/100 = $<<125*10/100=12.5>>12.5 discount for her purchase. So, the remaining amount she needs to pay is $125 - $12.5 =$<<125-12.5=112.5>>112.5. But Mrs. Brown can still avail of the 5% discount, so she has an additional discount of $112.5 x 4/100 = $<<112.5*4/100=4.5>>4.5. Therefore, Mrs. brown will only pay $112.5 - $4.5 = $<<112.5-4.5=108>>108. #### 108 At the supermarket, the price paid for oranges is proportional to the mass purchased. Annie paid $6 for 2 kg of oranges. How much will Annie pay for 12 kg of oranges? The price of 1 kg of oranges is $6 / 2 kg = $<<6/2=3>>3/kg So Ali will pay 12 kg * $3/kg = $<<12*3=36>>36 for 12 kg of oranges. #### 36
