Phil has 10 books that are all 100 pages each. He moves to a new home and during the move, 2 books are lost. How many pages worth of books does Phil have left?
Phil starts with 10 books and loses 2, for 10-2=
<<10-2=8>>8 books Each of Phil's remaining books has 100 pages, so he has 8*100= <<8*100=800>>800 pages worth of books #### 800 Tony, Moses and Esther are to share $50. Moses will take 40% of the total amount while Tony and Esther will split the remainder equally among themselves. How much more than Esther will Moses get? 40% of $50 is (40/100)*$50 = $<<(40/100)*50=20>>20 After Moses takes $20, there will be $50-$20 = $<<50-20=30>>30 left Tony and Esther will split $30 equally among themselves so each of them will get $30/2 = $<<30/2=15>>15 Moses gets $20-$15 = $<<20-15=5>>5 more than Esther #### 5 James streams on twitch. He had 150 subscribers and then someone gifted 50 subscribers. If he gets $9 a month per subscriber how much money does he make a month? He now has 150+50=<<150+50=200>>200 subscribers So he makes 200*9=$<<200*9=1800>>1800 a month #### 1800 Sally had 14 fries at lunch. Her friend Mark gave her one-third of his 36 fries at lunch. How many fries did Sally have for lunch after that? Mark gave Sally 36/3=<<36/3=12>>12 fries After that Sally has 14+12=<<14+12=26>>26 fries #### 26 There are 3 consecutive odd integers that have a sum of -147. What is the largest number? Let N = smallest number N + 2 = next number N + 4 = largest number N + (N + 2) + (N + 4) = -147 3N + 6 = -147 3N = <<-153=-153>>-153 N = -51 The largest number is <<-47=-47>>-47. #### -47 To raise funds for her local soup kitchen, Didi enlisted the help of her family, friends, and neighbors. They donated 10 same-size cakes that she sliced into 8 slices per cake and started selling a slice for $1. A local business owner was so impressed by Didi's efforts that she offered to donate 50 cents for each slice Didi sold. A second business owner also offered to donate a quarter for each slice sold. If Didi sold all the slices, how much money did she raise? All the cakes yielded 10 * 8 = <<10*8=80>>80 slices Since Didi was selling each slice for $1, it means she sold everything for 80 * 1 = <<80*1=80>>80 dollars. The first business owner donated 50/100 * 80 = <<50/100*80=40>>40 dollars. The second business owner donated 25/100*80= <<25/100*80=20>>20 dollars Adding both amounts gives 80 + 40 + 20 = <<80+40+20=140>>140 dollars #### 140 John can front squat 80% as much as he back squats. He used to back squat 200 kg but increased that by 50 kg. He can do a triple equal to 90% of the amount he front squats. How much weight will he move if he does three triples? He increased his back squat to 200+50=<<200+50=250>>250 kg That means his front squat is 250*.8=<<250*.8=200>>200 kg So he can do a triple with 200*.9=<<200*.9=180>>180 kg So he moves 180*3 = <<180*3=540>>540 kg if he does three triples #### 540 Ursula earns $8.50 an hour working in a restaurant. She works 8 hours a day. If she works 20 days a month, determine her annual salary. Ursula earns 8 x $8.50 = $<<8*8.50=68>>68 a day. In a month, she earns 20 x $68 = $<<20*68=1360>>1360. Therefore, Ursula's annual salary is 12 x $1360 = $<<12*1360=16320>>16,320 #### 16320 Two boxes for carrying oranges with a capacity of 80 and 50 were filled with 3/4 and 3/5 of the way full with oranges, respectively. Calculate the total number of oranges the boxes have together. For the box with a capacity of 80, if it was 3/4 full with oranges, it had 3/4*80 = <<80*3/4=60>>60 oranges. The second box, with a capacity of 50, was 3/5 full with oranges, which totals 3/5*50 = <<3/5*50=30>>30 oranges. Together, the two boxes have 60+30 = <<60+30=90>>90 oranges #### 90 Max watches a show every day that airs from 2:00 pm to 2:30 pm and only airs during weekdays. If he watches every episode during the week but misses the Friday episode, how many hours of the show did he watch? The show runs from 2:00 pm to 2:30 pm so that is 30 minutes. From Monday to Thursday, he watched a total of 30 * 4 = <<30*4=120>>120 minutes. In hours, this is equal to 120 / 60 = <<120/60=2>>2 hours. #### 2
