Davida worked 35 hours on each of Weeks 1 and 2. She worked 48 hours each of Weeks 3 and 4. How many more hours did Davida work on Weeks 3 and 4 than on Weeks 1 and 2?

Week 1 + Week 2 = 35 + 35 =

<<35+35=70>>70 hours Week 3 + Week 4 = 48 + 48 = <<48+48=96>>96 hours Subtract Weeks 3-4 from Weeks 1-2 = 96 - 70 = <<96-70=26>>26 #### 26 Gabe has three songs on his playlist. “The Best Day” is 3 minutes, “Raise the Roof” is 2 minutes, and “Rap Battle” is 3 minutes. How many times can Gabe listen to his entire playlist on the 40-minute ride to his wrestling match? If you add all the songs together, Gabe’s playlist is 3 + 2 + 3 = <<3+2+3=8>>8 minutes long. During the 40-minute car ride, Gabe can listen to his 8-minute playlist 40 / 8 = <<40/8=5>>5 times. #### 5 The square footage of the two bedrooms in the apartment that Jenny and Martha share totals 300 square feet. If Jenny's bedroom is 60 square feet larger than Martha's, how large, in square feet, is Martha's bedroom? Let M be the number of square feet in Matha's bedroom Jenny's bedroom is M+60 square feet. M+M+60=300 2M+60=300 2M=240 M=<<120=120>>120 Martha's bedroom is 120 square feet. #### 120 There are 4 carriages in a train and each carriage has 25 seats. If each carriage could accommodate 10 more passengers, how many passengers would fill up 3 trains? If each carriage had another 10 seats, each carriage would have 25 + 10 = 35 seats. The train comprises of 4 carriages and each carriage now has 35 seats; therefore a train has 35 x 4 = <<4*35=140>>140 seats. 3 trains with 140 seats each in total can take up 3 x 140 = <<3*140=420>>420 passengers. #### 420 Max needs 65 paper plates for the barbecue party. He already has 22 green paper plates and 24 blue paper plates. How many more paper plates does he need? He already has a total of 22 + 24 = <<22+24=46>>46 paper plates. Therefore, Max needs 65 - 46 = <<65-46=19>>19 more paper plates. #### 19 Drew is 5 years older than Maya. Peter is 4 years older than Drew. John is 30 and is twice as old as Maya. In 2 years, Jacob will be exactly half of Peter’s age. How old is Jacob now? If John is 30 and twice as old as Maya then Maya is 30 / 2 = <<30/2=15>>15 years old Drew is 5 years older than Maya so Drew is 15 + 5 = 20 years old Peter is 4 years older than Drew so is 20 + 4 = 24 years old In 2 years, Peter will be 24 + 2 = <<24+2=26>>26 years old Half of Peter’s age in 2 years will be 26 / 2 = <<26/2=13>>13 years old and Jacob’s age in 2 years Jacob now is 13 - 2 = <<13-2=11>>11 years old #### 11 Barry, Thomas and Emmanuel are to share a jar of 200 jelly beans. If Thomas takes 10%, and Barry and Emmanuel are to share the remainder in the ratio 4:5 respectively, how many jelly beans will Emmanuel get? 10% of 200 jelly beans is (10/100)*200 = <<200*10/100=20>>20 jelly beans Thomas takes 20 jelly beans leaving 200-20 = <<200-20=180>>180 jelly beans 180 jelly beans are to be shared in the ratio 4:5 so each share is 180/(4+5) = <<180/(4+5)=20>>20 jelly beans Emmanuel gets 5 shares which is 5*20 = <<5*20=100>>100 #### 100 At a recent fishing tournament, Alex caught 7 times as many fish as Jacob. Jacob did not think that he had any chance of winning, but Alex became overconfident and knocked over his bucket of fish, losing 23 fish back to the lake. If Jacob had 8 fish at the beginning, how many more fish does he need to catch to beat Alex by just 1 fish? At the beginning, Jacob had 8 fish Alex had 7 * 8 = <<7*8=56>>56 fish After knocking the bucket over, Alex was left with 56 - 23 = <<56-23=33>>33 fish left. The final amount caught by Jacob to beat Alex by 1 fish is 33 +1 = <<33+1=34>>34 fish. Then Jacob needs to catch 34 - 8 = <<34-8=26>>26 fish more. #### 26 Ariel is collecting fish. She has 45 fish. 2/3 are male. How many female fish does she have? 1/3 of her fish are female because 1 - (2/3) = 1/3 She has 15 female fish because 45 x (1/3) = <<45*(1/3)=15>>15 #### 15 Johnson has a sack of potatoes. He gives Gina 69 potatoes, gives Tom twice as much potatoes as he gave Gina and gives one-third of the amount of potatoes he gave Tom to Anne. How many potatoes does he have left if the sack contains 300 potatoes? He gives twice 69 potatoes to Tom, which is 69*2 = <<69*2=138>>138 potatoes He gives one-third of 138 potatoes to Anne, which is 138*(1/3) = <<138*(1/3)=46>>46 potatoes In total, he has given out 69+138+46 = <<69+138+46=253>>253 potatoes He initially had 300 potatoes so he now has 300-253 = <<300-253=47>>47 potatoes left #### 47
