Alexis has four times as many mangoes as Dilan and Ashley combined. If Alexis has 60 mangoes, how many mangoes does all of them have combined?

If Alexis has four times the combined number of mangoes Dilan and Ashley has, then they both have 60 mangoes/4 =15 mangoes

The total number of mangoes for all of them is 15 mangoes + 60 mangoes =

<<15+60=75>>75 mangoes #### 75 At the end of the first quarter, the winning team had double the points of the losing team. At the end of the second quarter, the winning team had 10 more points than it started with. At the end of the third quarter, the winning team had 20 more points than the number it had in the second quarter. If the total points the winning team scored in the game was 80, and the losing team had 10 points in the first quarter, calculate the total number of points the team scored in the fourth quarter. At the end of the first quarter, the winning team had double the points of the losing team, meaning the winning team had already scored 10*2=<<10*2=20>>20 points. At the end of the second quarter, the winning team had 10 more points than it started with, a total of 20+10=30 points. At the end of the third quarter, the winning team had 20 more points than the number it had in the second quarter, a total of 20+30=<<20+30=50>>50 points. If the total points the winning team scored in the game was 80, they scored 80-50=<<80-50=30>>30 points in the fourth quarter. #### 30 For every black & white cookie that Elsa makes, she has to make the batter, bake the cookies for 15 minutes and then allow to cool. She then has to dip the cookies in white icing and allow the icing to harden for 30 minutes. Then she has to re-dip them in chocolate icing and allowed to harden for an additional 30 minutes. If it takes her 2 hours to make the cookies from start to finish, how long does it take to make the dough and cool the cookies before she can start dipping them? It takes 15 minutes to bake, 30 minutes for the white icing to harden and 30 minutes for the chocolate icing to harden so it takes 15+30+30 = <<15+30+30=75>>75 minutes Every hour has 60 minutes and it takes her 2 hours so it takes 60*2 = <<60*2=120>>120 minutes to make the cookies It takes 120 minutes to make the cookies from start to finish and she spends 75 minutes baking and hardening icing so it takes her 120-75=<<120-75=45>>45 minutes to make the batter and cool the cookies #### 45 Kyle makes $3200.00 every month. His monthly bills include $1250 for rent, $150 on utilities, $400 into retirement & savings accounts, $300.00 on groceries/eating out, $200 for insurance and $200 for miscellaneous expenses. If he’s looking at buying a car with a monthly car payment of $350 how much does that leave for gas and maintenance? Kyle’s monthly bills are 1250+150+400+300+200+200 = $<<1250+150+400+300+200+200=2500.00>>2,500.00 He makes $3200 and his bills are $2500 so that leaves 3200-2500 = $<<3200-2500=700.00>>700.00 If he buys a car with a monthly car payment of $350 then that leaves 700-350 = $350.00 left over for gas and maintenance #### 350 Alexander was 50 inches on his 8th birthday. If he grows 1/2 a foot a year, how many inches tall will he be on his 12th birthday? He grows six inches a year because 12 x .5 = <<12*.5=6>>6 He will grow 24 inches between his 8th and 12th birthday because 4 x 6 = <<4*6=24>>24 He will be 74 inches tall because 50 + 24 = <<50+24=74>>74 #### 74 While at the lake, Cohen saw 300 fish-eater birds that had migrated into the area recently walking by the lake, eating the fish they had caught. The number of birds at the lake doubled on the second day and reduced by 200 on the third day. How many fish-eater birds did Cohen see in the three days? Since there were 300 fish-eater birds in the lake on the first day, the number doubled to 2*300 = <<300*2=600>>600 birds on the second day. The total number of fish that Cohen saw in the lake in the two days is 600+300 = <<600+300=900>>900 On the third day, the number of fish in the lake reduced to 600-200 = <<600-200=400>>400 birds In the three days, Cohen saw 400+900 = <<400+900=1300>>1300 fish-eater birds at the lake. #### 1300 A family just bought a newborn puppy that must eat a special type of dog food until it is 1 year old. The puppy needs to eat 2 ounces of this special dog food per day during the first 60 days of its life. After that, it needs to eat 4 ounces per day of the special food until it is old enough to eat regular dog food. If the special dog food is only sold in 5-pound bags, and there are 16 ounces in a pound, how many bags will the family need to buy to feed the puppy until it is old enough to eat regular dog food? The puppy will consume 60*2 = <<60*2=120>>120 ounces of the special dog food in the first 60 days. This leaves 365 - 60 = 305 days where the puppy will consume 4 ounces of food per day, or 305*4 = 1220 ounces of the special food. Thus, the puppy requires a total of 120 + 1220 = <<120+1220=1340>>1340 ounces of food before it is 1 year old. Each 5-pound bag contains 5*16 = <<5*16=80>>80 ounces of special dog food. Therefore, the puppy will need to eat 1340/80 = 16.75 bags of the special dog food, meaning the family will need to buy 17 bags. #### 17 Mitzel spent 35% of her allowance. If she spent $14, how much money is left in her allowance? If 35% represents 14, then 100-35 = 65 represents the amount left of her allowance. The amount she didn't use is 65*14/35 = <<65*14/35=26>>26 #### 26 A book is 98 pages long. Half of the pages are filled with images, and 11 with an introduction. Of the remaining pages, half are blank and the other half are filled with text. How many pages with text are there? Half of the pages are images, which means 98 * 0.5 = <<98*0.5=49>>49 pages. So there are 98 - 49 - 11 pages for the introduction = <<98-49-11=38>>38 remaining pages. Half of the remaining pages are filled with text, which means 38 * 0.5 = <<38*0.5=19>>19 pages. #### 19 Valerie’s cookie recipe makes 16 dozen cookies and calls for 4 pounds of butter. She only wants to make 4 dozen cookies for the weekend. How many pounds of butter will she need? Her original recipe makes 16 dozen and she only needs 4 dozen so she needs to reduce the recipe by 16/4 = <<16/4=4>>4 For 4 dozen cookies, she needs to reduce her recipe by 4 and the original called for 4 pounds of butter so she now needs 4/4 = 1 pound of butter #### 1
