Two pieces of bread are needed for one regular sandwich. 3 pieces of bread are needed for a double meat sandwich. How many pieces of bread are needed for 14 regular sandwiches and 12 double meat sandwiches?

Regular = 2 * 14 =

<<2*14=28>>28 pieces Double = 3 * 12 = <<3*12=36>>36 pieces 28 + 36 = <<28+36=64>>64 pieces 64 pieces of bread are needed for those sandwiches. #### 64 Keith bought 8 new baseball trading cards to add to his collection. The next day his dog ate half of his collection. There are now only 46 cards left. How many cards did Keith start with? Keith's dog ate half of his collection so he had 2 * 46 cards = <<2*46=92>>92 cards before his dog ate them. Keith had added 8 new cards to his collection so he had 92 cards - 8 = <<92-8=84>>84 cards to start with. #### 84 In 5 years, Nacho will be three times older than Divya. If Divya is currently 5 years old, what's the sum of their ages now? If Divya is currently 5 years old, she will be 5+5 = <<5+5=10>>10 years old in five years. Since in 5 years Nacho will be three times older than Divya, he will be 3*10 = <<3*10=30>>30 years older than Divya. Nacho's total age in five years will be 30+10 = <<30+10=40>>40 years. Currently, Nacho is 40-5 = <<40-5=35>>35 years old. The sum of Divya and Nacho's age now is 35+5 = <<35+5=40>>40 years #### 40 Leila spent 3/4 of her savings on make-up and the rest on a sweater. If the sweater cost her $20, what were her original savings? If Leila spent 3/4 of her savings on make-up, this means she spent 1- 3/4 = 1/4 of her savings on a sweater. Let S be her original savings. If the sweater cost $20, this means 1/4 * S = $20. Thus S = $20 * 4 = $<<20*4=80>>80. #### 80 A car traveled 360 miles in 4 hours and 30 minutes. What was its speed in miles per hour? There are 60 minutes in one hour, so the car traveled 360 miles in 4 hours + 30 minutes/60 minutes/hour = 4.5 hours. In one hour, the car travels 360 miles / 4.5 hours = <<360/4.5=80>>80 miles/hour. #### 80 The owner of a small store divided the sugar into 12 packs. If each pack weighs 250 grams and has 20 grams of sugar left, how many grams of sugar did he start with? The total weight of the 12 packs of sugar is 250 x 12 = 3 000 grams. The owner started with 3000 + 20 = <<3000+20=3020>>3020 grams of sugar. #### 3020 The number of Oreos and cookies in a box is in the ratio 4:9. Zane bought each Oreo at $2 and each cookie at $3. How much more money did Zane spend on buying the cookies than buying the Oreos if the total number of items in the box is 65? The total ratio representing the number of cookies and Oreos that Zack bought is 4+9=<<4+9=13>>13 The fraction representing the number of Oreos Zane bought is 4/13, and since the total number of items in the box is 65, Zane bought 4/13*65=<<4/13*65=20>>20 Oreos. If Zane bought 20 Oreos at $2 each, the total cost of buying Oreos is $2*20=$<<20*2=40>>40 Since the total number of items in the box is 65, and there are 20 Oreos in the box, the number of cookies in the box is 65-20=<<65-20=45>>45 The cost of buying the cookies at $3 each is 45*$3=$<<45*3=135>>135 If the Oreos cost $40 to buy, Zane used $135-$40=$95 more to buy Cookies than Oreos. #### 95 Boston had .5 feet of snow on the first day of winter. The next day they got an additional 8 inches. Over the next 2 days, 2 inches of the snow melted. On the fifth day, they received another 2 times the amount of snow they received on the first day. How many feet of snow do they now have? 12 inches is 1 foot and they received a .5 foot of snow on the first day so they received 12*.5 = <<12*.5=6>>6 inches of snow The first day they had 6 inches and then received another 8 inches for a total of 6+8 = <<6+8=14>>14 inches 2 inches melted from their 14 inches so that leaves 14-2 = <<14-2=12>>12 inches of snow They received 2 times the amount as the first day's 6 inches of snow so that's 2*6 = <<2*6=12>>12 inches of snow So they had 12 inches of snow and received another 12 inches of snow for a total of 12+12 = <<12+12=24>>24 inches 12 inches is 1 foot and they have 24 inches of snow so they have 24/12 = 2 feet of snow #### 2 There are 3 ducks in a pond and they all eat some pieces of bread thrown in the water. One duck eats half of all the pieces of bread. Another duck eats only 13 pieces of the bread and the last duck eats 7 pieces of bread. There are 30 pieces of bread left in the water, how many total pieces of bread were thrown in the pond? There are 30+7+13=<<30+7+13=50>>50 pieces of bread after the first duck ate The first duck ate half of all bread so 50*2=<<50*2=100>>100 pieces of bread were thrown in the pond #### 100 Eric sorted 150 colored pencils into 5 containers for his art class. Before class, another teacher brought him 30 more pencils. How many can he evenly distribute between the five containers now? Before the extra colored pencils, he had 150/5=<<150/5=30>>30 colored pencils in each container. With the other colored pencils, he is given he now has 150+30=<<150+30=180>>180 colored pencils If you distribute them evenly each container should have 180/5=<<180/5=36>>36 colored pencils #### 36
