Camille goes to the Ice Cream Palace with her husband and two children. Each one orders a different ice cream. Camille orders a banana split, her husband orders a waffle bowl, her daughter orders a single cone, and her son orders a double cone. The cone has 1 scoop of ice cream, the banana split has 3 times as many scoops of ice cream as the cone and the waffle bowl has 1 more scoop than the banana split. How many scoops of ice cream did the ice cream man serve?

The double cone has 2*1=

<<2*1=2>>2 scoops of ice cream. The banana split has three times as many scoops of ice cream as the single cone, so it has 3*1=<<3*1=3>>3 scoops of ice cream. The waffle bowl has 1 more scoop of ice cream than the banana split, so it has 3+1=<<3+1=4>>4 scoops of ice cream. The ice cream man served a total of 1+2+3+4=<<1+2+3+4=10>>10 scoops of ice cream. #### 10 When the schools were opened for the new year, Hendrix's class had 20 new students. However, at the end of the school year, 1/3 of the students in Hendrix class had transferred to other schools. If the number of students that were in Hendrix's class before 20 new students joined was 160, calculate the number of students that were in the class at the end of the year. After 20 new students joined the class at the start of the school year, the number of students increased to 160+20 = <<160+20=180>>180 However, at the end of the year, 1/3*180 = <<1/3*180=60>>60 students had transferred from the school. The total number of students remaining in the school at the end of the year is 180-60 = <<180-60=120>>120 #### 120 Samantha bought a crate of 30 eggs for $5. If she decides to sell each egg for 20 cents, how many eggs will she have left by the time she recovers her capital from the sales? There are 100 cents in each $1 so $5 gives 5*100 cents = <<5*100=500>>500 cents To recover her capital of 500 cents from a selling price of 20 cents per egg she has to sell 500/20 = <<500/20=25>>25 eggs There were 30 eggs in the crate to start with so she will have 30-25 = <<30-25=5>>5 eggs left #### 5 A class of 30 high school students is preparing for a field trip. If each student contributes $2 every Friday for their trip, how many dollars will they have in 2 months? They save 30 students * $2/student/week = $<<30*2=60>>60/week They saved for 2 months which is 2 months * 4 weeks/month = <<2*4=8>>8 weeks So in 2 months, they will have $60/week * 8 weeks = $<<60*8=480>>480 #### 480 Yasmin deposited a $50 birthday check from her grandmother in her bank account. The check was worth a quarter of her new balance after the check money is added. How many dollars were in her account before she deposited the check? The $50 check is worth 1/4 of Yasmin’s new balance, so her new balance is 50 * 4 = $<<50*4=200>>200. Thus, Yasmin had 200 - 50 = $<<200-50=150>>150 in her account before she deposited the check. #### 150 In the Math club, there are two times as many males as females. If there are 6 female members, how many members are there in the Math club in total? There are 6 x 2 = <<6*2=12>>12 male members in the club. Thus, the Math club has a total of 6 + 12 = <<6+12=18>>18 members. #### 18 Antoine owns a strawberry farm that supplies strawberries to his local bakeries. The first bakery needs 2 sacks, the second bakery needs 4 sacks, and the third bakery needs 12 sacks of strawberries per week. How many sacks of strawberries does he need to supply all the bakeries in 4 weeks? The first bakery needs 2 x 4 = <<2*4=8>>8 sacks of strawberries per month. The second bakery needs 4 x 4 = <<4*4=16>>16 sacks of strawberries per month. The third bakery needs 12 x 4 = <<12*4=48>>48 sacks of strawberries per month. Therefore, Antoine needs 48 + 16 + 8 = <<48+16+8=72>>72 sacks of strawberries to supply all the bakeries for a month. #### 72 Maggie has an after-school job that pays her $5.00 for every magazine subscription she can sell. She sells 4 to her parents, 1 to her grandfather, 2 to the next-door neighbor and twice that amount to another neighbor. How much money did Maggie earn? Maggie sells 2 subscriptions to a neighbor and twice that amount to another neighbor so she sells 2*2 = <<2*2=4>>4 subscriptions to the other neighbor In total, Maggie sells 4+1+2+4 = <<4+1+2+4=11>>11 subscriptions She earns $5.00 per subscription she sells so she earns 5*11 = $<<5*11=55.00>>55.00 #### 55 Dexter filled 3 fewer plastic boxes with football cards than basketball cards. He filled 9 boxes with basketball cards and each box has 15 cards. For the boxes with football cards, he filled each box with 20 cards. How many cards does Dexter have in total? Dexter have 9 x 15 = <<9*15=135>>135 basketball cards. He filled 9 - 3 = <<9-3=6>>6 plastic boxes with football cards. So, he has 6 x 20 = <<6*20=120>>120 football cards. Therefore, Dexter has 135 + 120 = <<135+120=255>>255 cards in total. #### 255 Bill the miner discovers a vein of fool's gold. He successfully sells 8 ounces to a merchant, but when he tries to sell to the sheriff he's arrested, fined $50 and run out of town on a rail. If Bill earned $9 for every ounce of fool's gold he sold, how much money is he left with? First find the total amount of money Bill made from the merchant: 8 ounces * $9/ounce = $<<8*9=72>>72 Then subtract the fine to find how much money he was left with: $72 - $50 = $<<72-50=22>>22 #### 22
