Annie calculated she has three times more toys than Mike, and two less than Tom. Mike has 6 toys. How many toys do Annie, Mike, and Tom have in total?

Annie has three times more toys than Mike, which means she has 3 * 6 =

<<3*6=18>>18 more toys than Mike. Annie has a total of 18+6= <<18+6=24>>24 toys. Tom has two toys more than Annie, so he has 24 + 2 = <<24+2=26>>26 toys. In total Annie, Mike, and Tom have 6 + 24 + 26 = <<6+24+26=56>>56 toys. #### 56 A park had 200 visitors last Saturday and 40 more visitors on Sunday than on Saturday. Calculate the total number of people in the park over the two days. If on Sunday 40 more people were present at the park than on Saturday, there were 200+40 = <<40+200=240>>240 people on Sunday. The total number of people at the park over the two days is 240+200= <<240+200=440>>440 #### 440 Bill is a painter who is hired to paint a client’s house. The house has three bedrooms, and twice as many other rooms as bedrooms. The client wants each bedroom painted a different color, and the other rooms painted white. Each room takes 2 gallons of paint. Color paint comes in 1-gallon paint cans, and white paint comes in 3-gallon cans. How many cans of paint will Bill need for the whole house? Bill needs 2 * 3 = <<2*3=6>>6 gallons of color paint for the 3 bedrooms. Thus, he needs 6 / 1 = <<6/1=6>>6 cans of color paint for the bedrooms. There are 2 * 3 = <<2*3=6>>6 other rooms in the house. He needs 2 * 6 = <<2*6=12>>12 gallons of white paint for the other rooms. Thus, he needs 12 / 3 = <<12/3=4>>4 cans of white paint. In all, Bill needs 4 + 6 = <<4+6=10>>10 cans of paint for the whole house. #### 10 On the planet Orbius-5, there are 250 days per year, and each year is equally divided into 5 seasons. If an astronaut from earth lands on planet Orbius-5 and stays there for 3 seasons before returning to earth, what is the number of days the astronaut will spend on Orbius-5? If 1 year is 250 days, and each year is divided into 5 equal-length seasons, then each season is 250/5=<<250/5=50>>50 days long. If an astronaut stays on the planet for three seasons, then they remain there for 3*50=<<3*50=150>>150 days. #### 150 George donated half his monthly income to charity and spent $20 from the other half on groceries. If he now has $100 left, how much was his monthly income? Half his monthly income is $100+$20 = $<<100+20=120>>120 His monthly income therefore is 2*$120 = $<<2*120=240>>240 #### 240 James decides to start making his own coffee. He buys a coffee machine for $200 and gets a $20 discount. He figures it will cost him $3 a day to make his coffee. He previously bought 2 coffees a day for $4 each. How long until the machine pays for itself? He bought the machine for $200-$20=$<<200-20=180>>180 He used to spend 4*2=$<<4*2=8>>8 a day So he saves $8-$3=$<<8-3=5>>5 a day So it will take him $180/$5=<<180/5=36>>36 days to pay for itself #### 36 John has a party and invites 30 people. Of the people he invited 20% didn't show up. 75% of the people who show up get steak and the rest get chicken. How many people ordered chicken? There were 30*.2=<<30*.2=6>>6 people who didn't show up So 30-6=<<30-6=24>>24 people showed up Of the people who showed up, 24*.75=<<24*.75=18>>18 got steak So 24-18=<<24-18=6>>6 got chicken #### 6 Sally sews 4 shirts on Monday, 3 shirts on Tuesday, and 2 shirts on Wednesday. Each shirt has 5 buttons. How many buttons does Sally need to sew all the shirts? Total number of shirts Sally sews is 4 + 3 + 2 = <<4+3+2=9>>9 shirts. The total number of buttons she needs is 9 x 5 = <<9*5=45>>45 buttons. #### 45 Noah and Ava are planning a trip to the zoo. Zoo entry tickets are $5 per person. Bus fare is $1.50 per person one way. If they bring $40 with them, how much money do they have left to spend on lunch and snacks? Noah and Ava’s zoo entry tickets are $5 x 2 = $<<5*2=10>>10. Their round trip bus fare will be $1.50 x 2 x 2 = $<<1.5*2*2=6>>6. Zoo tickets and bus fare will cost $10 + $6 = $<<10+6=16>>16. For lunch and snacks, they will have $40 - $16 = $<<40-16=24>>24. #### 24 Benny has bought a new piggy bank and wants to start saving money. In January he adds $19, then adds the same amount in February. By the end of March, he has $46. How many dollars did he add to the piggy bank in March? In January and February, Benny added 19 + 19 = $<<19+19=38>>38 to the piggy bank. Calculating the difference between this and the total he has at the end of March shows that he saved 46 – 38 = $<<46-38=8>>8 in March. #### 8
