How many minutes was the first movie? ** The first movie was 2*60=
<<2*60=120>>120 minutes How many minutes is the newest movie? ** So this movie is 120*.6=<<120*.6=72>>72 minutes longer How many minutes is the newest movie? ** So this movie is 192 minutes How much did the newest movie cost per minute to film? ** It also cost 50*2=$<<50*2=100>>100 per minute to film How much did the newest movie cost in total? ** So it cost 192*100=$1920 #### 1920 Silvia’s bakery is offering 10% on advanced orders over $50.00. She orders 2 quiches for $15.00 each, 6 croissants at $3.00 each and 6 buttermilk biscuits for $2.00 each. How much will her order be with the discount? How much do the quiches cost? ** She orders 2 quiches for $15.00 each so they cost 2*15 = $<<2*15=30.00>>30.00 How much do the croissants cost? ** She orders 6 croissants at $3.00 each so they cost 6*2.5 = $<<6*3=18.00>>18.00 How much do the biscuits cost? ** She orders 6 biscuits at $2.00 each so they cost 6*2 = $<<6*2=12.00>>12.00 How much does Silvia's advance order cost? ** Her advance order is 30+18+12 = $<<30+18+12=60.00>>60.00 How much will Silia's order be with the discount? ** Her advance order is over $50.00 so she can get 10% off so .10*60 = $6.00 How much will Silvia's order be with the discount? ** Her order is $60.00 and she gets $6.00 off so her advanced order will cost 60-6=$<<60-6=54.00>>54.00 #### 54 Borris liquor store uses 90 kilograms of grapes every 6 months. He is thinking of increasing his production by twenty percent. How many grapes does he need in a year after increasing his production? How many kilograms of grapes does Borris use in a year? ** Borris uses 90 x 2 = <<90*2=180>>180 kilograms of grapes per year. How many kilograms of grapes does Borris need in a year after increasing his production? ** The increase of kilograms of grapes he needed per year is 180 x 0.20 = <<180*0.20=36>>36. How many kilograms of grapes does Borris need in a year? ** Therefore, Borris needs 180 + 36 = <<180+36=216>>216 kilograms of grapes in a year. #### 216 Mel is three years younger than Katherine. When Katherine is two dozen years old, how old will Mel be in years? How old will Katherine be when she is 24 years old? ** When Katherine is 2 dozen years old, she will be 2*12=<<2*12=24>>24 years old. How old will Mel be when Katherine is 24 years old? ** If Mel is three years younger than Katherine, then when Katherine is 24 years old, Mel will be 24-3=<<24-3=21>>21 years old. #### 21 James collects all the fruits from his 2 trees. Each tree has 20 plants. Each plant has 1 seed and he plants 60% of those. How many trees did he plant? How many seeds did he get? ** He got 20*2=<<20*2=40>>40 seeds How many trees did he plant? ** That means he plants 40*.6=<<40*.6=24>>24 trees #### 24 Kyle bought 2 glass bottles that can hold 15 origami stars each. He then bought another 3 identical glass bottles. How many stars must Kyle make to fill all the glass bottles he bought? How many glass bottles does Kyle have? ** Kyle has 2 + 3 = <<2+3=5>>5 glass bottles. How many stars must Kyle make? ** He needs to make 15 x 5 = <<15*5=75>>75 origami stars #### 75 Mark has two pets, a hare that runs 10 feet/second and a turtle that crawls 1 foot/second. If they're going to run a 20 foot-race, how much of a head start (in seconds) does the turtle need to finish in a tie? How long does the hare run? ** We can find how long the hare spends running by dividing the distance of the race by the hare's speed: 20 feet / 10 feet/second = <<20/10=2>>2 seconds How long does the turtle run? ** We can do the same for the turtle: 20 feet / 1 foot/second = <<20/1=20>>20 seconds How long is the head start? ** Finally, subtract the hare's run time from the turtle's run time to find the length of the head start the turtle needs: 20 seconds - 2 seconds = <<20-2=18>>18 seconds #### 18 Movie tickets cost $5 each on a Monday, twice as much on a Wednesday, and five times as much as Monday on a Saturday. If Glenn goes to the movie theater on Wednesday and Saturday, how much does he spend? How much does Glenn spend on Wednesday? ** He spends 5*2=$<<5*2=10>>10 on Wednesday to pay for a movie ticket.

On flat sand, it can ride at a speed of 60 miles per hour. When traveling on downhill slopes, it can race at 12 miles per hour faster than it can when it is on flat sand. And when riding on an uphill inclined slow, it travels at a speed 18 miles per hour slower than when it is riding on flat sand. If Conner rides his dune buggy one-third of the time on flat sand, one-third of the time on uphill slopes, and one-third of the time on downhill slopes, what is his average speed in miles per hour? How fast does Conner's dune buggy travel on downhill slopes? ** 12 mph faster than 60mph is 60+12=<<60+12=72>>72 mph. How fast does Conner's dune buggy travel on uphill slopes? ** 18 mph slower than 60 mph is 60-18=<<60-18=42>>42 mph. What is Conner's average speed in miles per hour? ** If he spends 1/3 of the time at each of these three speeds, then he averages (60+72+42)/3 = <<(60+72+42)/3=58>>58 mph. #### 58 A store sells 20 packets of 100 grams of sugar every week. How many kilograms of sugar does it sell every week? How many grams are sold every week? ** A total of 20 x 100 = <<20*100=2000>>2000 grams are sold every week. How many kilograms of sugar are sold every week? ** Since 1 kilogram is equal to 1000 grams, then 2000/1000 = <<2000/1000=2>>2 kilograms of sugar are sold every week. #### 2
