John is working as an IT specialist. He repairs broken computers. One day he had to fix 20 computers. 20% of them were unfixable, and 40% of them needed to wait a few days for spare parts to come. The rest John was able to fix right away. How many computers John was able to fix right away?
From all the computers, 100% - 40% - 20% = 40% got fixed right away.
So John was able to fix 40/100 * 20 =
<<40/100*20=8>>8 computers. #### 8 Matt spends 80 minutes washing the outside of his car and 1/4 that amount of time cleaning the inside. How long does he spend cleaning his car total? First find the time Matt spends cleaning the inside of his car: 80 minutes / 4 = <<80/4=20>>20 minutes Then add that time to the time he spends cleaning the outside to find his total cleaning time: 20 minutes + 80 minutes = <<20+80=100>>100 minutes #### 100 Beth had a set of 125 gold coins. Carl gave Beth a gift of an additional 35 gold coins. Then, Beth decided to sell half of her coins. How many coins did Beth sell? Carl's gift added 35 gold coins to Beth's 125-coin set, resulting in 135+25=160 gold coins. Beth chooses to sell half, or 160/2=<<160/2=80>>80 of her gold coins. #### 80 There were 10 apples and 5 oranges in the basket. If Emily adds 5 more oranges to the basket, what percentage of the fruit in the basket would be apples? If Emily adds 5 more oranges, there will be a total of 10 + 5 + 5 = <<10+5+5=20>>20 fruits in the basket. So, the percentage of the fruit that is apples is 10/20 x 100% = 50%. #### 50 The bakery made 95 muffins. They will be packed in boxes with 5 muffins in each box. If there are only 10 available boxes, how many boxes do they still need to pack all the muffins? A total of 10 x 5 = <<10*5=50>>50 muffins will be packed in 10 boxes. So 95 - 50 = <<95-50=45>>45 muffins still need to be packed in the boxes. Thus, 45/5 = <<45/5=9>>9 boxes are still needed to pack all those 45 muffins. #### 9 Heather made four times as many pizzas as Craig made on their first day at work at Mr. Pizza Inns. On their second day, Heather made 20 fewer pizzas than Craig's number. If Craig made 40 pizzas on their first day and 60 more pizzas on their second day than their first day, calculate the total number of pizzas the two made together in the two days. Craig made 40 pizzas on their first day at work, while heather made four times that number, a total of 4*40= 160 pizzas. Together, they made 160+40 = <<160+40=200>>200 pizzas on their first day. On the second day, Craig made 60 more pizzas than his first day at work, which totals 60+40 = <<60+40=100>>100 pizzas. On the same day, Heather made 20 fewer pizzas than Craig, a total of 100-20 = <<100-20=80>>80 pizzas. Together, they made 80+100 = <<80+100=180>>180 pizzas on the second day. In the two days, the two of them made a total of 180 +200 = <<180+200=380>>380 pizzas. #### 380 Ashley wants a champagne toast at her wedding. She wants to serve 2 glasses of champagne to each of her 120 wedding guests. 1 bottle of champagne has 6 servings. How many bottles of champagne will she need? She wants to serve 2 glasses of champagne to each of her 120 wedding guests so that's 2*120 = <<2*120=240>>240 servings Each bottle holds 6 servings and she needs 240 servings so that's 240/6 = <<240/6=40>>40 bottles of champagne #### 40 John goes to the store and pays with a 20 dollar bill. He buys 3 sodas and gets $14 in change. How much did each soda cost? He paid 20-14=$<<20-14=6>>6 So each soda cost 6/3=$<<6/3=2>>2 #### 2 With 82 students, there are 2 students for each computer. If there are 16 more students, how many computers must they have in total to continue with 2 students per computer? 2 students per computer means the total number of computers is 82 / 2 = <<82/2=41>>41 computers. with the arrival of 16 students, the number of computers that should be added is 16 / 2 = <<16/2=8>>8 computers. all computers together are 41 + 8 = <<41+8=49>>49 computers. #### 49 Mark donates soup to the 6 homeless shelters. Each one services 30 people and he decides to buy 10 cans of soup per person. How many cans of soup does Mark donate? He helps 6*30=<<6*30=180>>180 homeless people So he donates 180*10=<<180*10=1800>>1800 cans of soup #### 1800
