Paul went to the sporting goods store to buy a tennis racket. His favorite brand was having a sale that offered customers a deal to buy one racket at full price and get the second racket for half off the full price. If he purchased two rackets that were each originally marked at a full price of $60, how much did he spend on the two rackets, in dollars?

Half off the full price of $60 is $60/2=$

<<60/2=30>>30 off. Thus, for the two rackets, Paul spends $60+$60-$30=$<<60+60-30=90>>90. #### 90 There were 80 cars in a parking lot. At lunchtime, 13 cars left the parking lot but 5 more cars went in than left. How many cars are in the parking lot now? There are 80 - 13 = <<80-13=67>>67 cars in the parking lot after 13 went out. 13 + 5 = <<13+5=18>>18 cars went in the parking lot at lunchtime. So, there are 67 + 18 = <<67+18=85>>85 cars in the parking lot now. #### 85 Jimmy wants to order a pizza at a new place. The large pizza costs $10.00 and is cut into 8 slices. The first topping costs $2.00, the next 2 toppings cost $1.00 each and the rest of the toppings cost $0.50. If he orders a large pizza with pepperoni, sausage, ham, olives, mushrooms, bell peppers and pineapple. How much will his pizza cost per slice? The pizza costs $10 and the first topping, pepperoni costs $2 so right now it costs 10=2 = $12.00 The next 2 toppings, sausage and ham, cost $1.00 each so 2*1 = $<<2*1=2.00>>2.00 The remaining toppings, olives, mushrooms, bell peppers and pineapple, cost $0.50 each so they cost 4*.50 = $<<4*.50=2.00>>2.00 All total, Jimmy's pizza costs 12+2+2 = $<<12+2+2=16.00>>16.00 The pizza is sliced into 8 pieces and the pizza costs $16 so each slice costs 16/8= $2.00 a slice #### 2 Juanico is 4 years less than half the age of Gladys. If Gladys will be 40 years old ten years from now, calculate Juanico's age 30 years from now. If Gladys will be 40 years old ten years from now, she is 40-10= <<40-10=30>>30 years old currently. Juanico is 4 years less than half the age of Gladys, meaning he is 4 years younger than 1/2*30 = 15 years. Juanico's age is 15-4 =<<15-4=11>>11 years. Juanico's age 30 years from now will be 30+11 = <<30+11=41>>41 years. #### 41 Thomas is 6 years old. His older sister, Shay, is 13 years older than him and 5 years younger than their older brother, James. How old will James be by the time Thomas reaches his current age? Shay is 6 + 13 = <<6+13=19>>19 years old. James is 19 + 5 = <<19+5=24>>24 years old. Thomas will be 24 in 24 - 6 = <<24-6=18>>18 years. James will be 24 + 18 = <<24+18=42>>42 years old. #### 42 There are 6 forks in the cutlery drawer. There are 9 more knives than forks, and there are twice as many spoons as knives and half as many teaspoons as forks. After 2 of each cutlery is added to the drawer, how many pieces of cutlery are there in all? There are 6 + 9 = <<6+9=15>>15 knives There are 15 x 2 = <<15*2=30>>30 spoons There are 6 / 2 = <<6/2=3>>3 teaspoons There are 6 + 15 + 30 + 3 = <<6+15+30+3=54>>54 pieces before adding more cutlery. 2 of each 4 types of cutlery are added, and therefore 2 x 4 = <<2*4=8>>8 pieces added. In total there are 54 + 8 = <<54+8=62>>62 pieces of cutlery in the drawer #### 62 A man used to have 39 cows but last year 25 of them died and he sold 6 of them. This year the number of the cows increased by 24 and the man bought 43 more. His friend gave him 8 cows as a gift. How many cows does the man have now? Last year he had 39 cows - 25 cows - 6 cows = <<39-25-6=8>>8 cows. This year after the number of the cows has increased he has 8 cows + 24 cows = <<8+24=32>>32 cows. After he bought more cows he now has 32 cows + 43 cows = <<32+43=75>>75 cows. After his friend gave him cows he now has 75 cows + 8 cows = <<75+8=83>>83 cows. #### 83 Jason waits on a customer whose check comes to $15.00. Jason's state applies a 20% tax to restaurant sales. If the customer gives Jason a $20 bill and tells him to keep the change, how much is Jason's tip? First calculate how much the tax is by multiplying $15.00 by 20%: $15.00 * .2 = $<<15*.2=3.00>>3.00 Then subtract the cost of the meal and the tax from $20 to find Jason's tip: $20 - $15.00 - $3.00 = $<<20-15-3=2.00>>2.00 #### 2 Dalton, Hunter, and Alex started a Superhero Fan Club. They set a goal to watch as many Superhero movies as they could in one summer. Dalton watched 7 movies, Hunter watched 12, and Alex watched 15. They all watched 2 movies together, but every other movie they watched was different. How many different movies did they see? Dalton watched 7 – 2 = <<7-2=5>>5 more movies. Hunter watched 12 – 2 = <<12-2=10>>10 more movies. Alex watched 15 – 2 = <<15-2=13>>13 more movies. Altogether, they watched 2 + 5 + 10 + 13 = <<2+5+10+13=30>>30 different movies. #### 30 There are 20 hands in Peter’s class, not including his. Assume every student in the class has 2 arms and 2 hands. How many students are in Peter’s class including him? There are 20 + 2 of Peter’s hands = <<20+2=22>>22 hands in Peter’s class including his There are 22 hands / 2 hands per student = <<22/2=11>>11 students #### 11
