<<1200-180=1020>>1020 #### 1020 To get free delivery, Alice needs to spend a minimum of $35.00 online at her favorite grocery store. In her cart she has 1.5 pounds of chicken at $6.00 per pound, 1 pack of lettuce for $3.00, cherry tomatoes for $2.50, 4 sweet potatoes at $0.75 each, 2 heads of broccoli for $2.00 each and a pound of Brussel sprouts for $2.50. How much more does she need to spend in order to get free delivery? She bought 1.5 pounds of chicken for $6.00/pound so that's 1.5*$6 = $<<1.5*6=9.00>>9.00 She bought 4 sweet potatoes at $0.75 each so that's 4*$0.75 = $<<4*0.75=3.00>>3.00 She bought 2 heads of broccoli for $2.00 each so that's 2*$2 = $<<2*2=4.00>>4.00 The chicken is $9.00, lettuce is $3.00, tomatoes are $2.50, the sweet potatoes are $3.00, broccoli is $4.00 and Brussel sprouts are $2.50 for a total of $9 + $3 + $2.50 + $3 + $4 + $2.5 = $<<9+3+2.5+3+4+2.5=24.00>>24.00 To get free delivery she needs to spend $35.00, and she already has $24.00 in her cart, so she needs to spend an extra $35-$24 = $<<35-24=11.00>>11.00 #### 11 Crackers contain 15 calories each and cookies contain 50 calories each. If Jimmy eats 7 cookies, how many crackers does he need to eat to have consumed a total of 500 calories? He has consumed 7 * 50 = <<7*50=350>>350 calories from the cookies. He needs to consume 500 - 350 = <<500-350=150>>150 more calories. He should eat 150 / 15 = <<150/15=10>>10 crackers. #### 10 Tony read 23 books, Dean read 12 books and Breanna read 17 books. Tony and Dean read 3 of the same books and all three had read the same book as well. In total how many different books have Tony, Dean, and Breanna read? Tony and Dean together read 23 + 12 = <<23+12=35>>35 books 3 of these books were duplicates so Tony and Dean together read 35 - 3 = <<35-3=32>>32 unique books All three read 32 + 17 = <<32+17=49>>49 books Because the books are being counted three times, the book is counted 3 - 1 = <<3-1=2>>2 extra times. All together they have read 49 - 2 = <<49-2=47>>47 different books #### 47 Alison has half as much money as Brittany. Brittany has 4 times as much money as Brooke. Brooke has twice as much money as Kent. If Kent has $1,000, how much money does Alison have? Brooke has 2*1,000 = <<2*1000=2000>>2,000 dollars. Brittany has 4*2,000 = <<4*2000=8000>>8,000 dollars. Alison has 8,000/2 = <<8000/2=4000>>4,000 dollars. #### 4,000 If a vehicle is driven 12 miles on Monday, 18 miles on Tuesday, and 21 miles on Wednesday. What is the average distance traveled per day? The total distance covered from Monday to Wednesday is 12 + 18 + 21 = <<12+18+21=51>>51 miles. So the average distance traveled per day is 51/3 = <<51/3=17>>17 miles. #### 17 In spring, a family planted trees to capture the sun. They planted 3 times as many peaches as apricots. If 58 apricot trees were planted, how many trees were planted in total? The number of peaches planted is three times the number of apricots which is 3*58 = <<3*58=174>>174 In total, the family planted 174+58 = <<174+58=232>>232 trees #### 232 Melanie baked 10 batches of brownies, with 20 brownies in each batch. She set aside 3/4 of the brownies in each batch for a bake sale, put 3/5 of the remaining in a container, and gave out the rest. How many brownies are given out? Melanie set aside 20 x 3/4 = <<20*3/4=15>>15 brownies from each batch for a bake sale. So, there are 20 - 15 = <<20-15=5>>5 brownies that are not for bake sale from each batch. Out of the 5, 5 x 3/5 = <<5*3/5=3>>3 brownies are kept in a container from each batch. Thus, 5 - 3 = <<5-3=2>>2 brownies are given out from each batch. Therefore, a total of 2 x 10 = <<2*10=20>>20 brownies are given out from the 10 batches. #### 20 Tamara, Nora, and Lulu have been saving to pay off a $40 debt. So far, Nora has saved five times what Lulu has, but three times Tamara’s savings. Lulu has saved $6. If they pay off the debt and divide the remaining money equally, how many dollars will each girl get? Nora has saved 5*6 = <<5*6=30>>30 dollars This means that Tamara has saved 30/3 = <<30/3=10>>10 dollars All together, they have saved 30 + 10 + 6 = <<30+10+6=46>>46 dollars If they pay off the debt they will remain with 46 - 40 = <<46-40=6>>6 dollars Dividing the remaining money equally will give each girl 6/3 = <<6/3=2>>2 dollars. #### 2 Bob grew corn in his garden this year and ended up with 50 bushels. This is way too much for him to eat, so he gave some of it away to his friends. His friend Terry took 8 bushels, while Jerry only took 3. He gave 12 bushels to his friend Linda, who runs a food pantry. His neighbor Stacy doesn't eat much corn, but she still accepted 21 ears of corn from him. If each bushel contained 14 ears of corn, how many ears of corn does Bob have left? Stacy took 21 ears of corn, there are 14 ears to a bushel, so she took 21 ears / 14 ears/bushel = <<21/14=1.5>>1.5 bushels of corn. In all, Bob gave away 8 bushels + 3 bushels + 12 bushels + 1.5 bushels = <<8+3+12+1.5=24.5>>24.5 bushels of corn. This leaves him with 50 bushels - 24.5 bushels = <<50-24.5=25.5>>25.5 bushels of corn. At 14 ears of corn per bushel, Bob has 25.5 bushels * 14 ears per bushel = <<25.5*14=357>>357 ears of corn. #### 357
