Question: Eve wants to buy her 3 nieces cooking gear that's made for kids. The hand mitts cost $14.00 and the apron is $16.00. A set of 3 cooking utensils is $10.00 and a small knife is twice the amount of the utensils. The store is offering a 25% off sale on all cooking gear. How much will Eve spend on the gifts? Think carefully first, then make a decision:

A small knife is twice the amount of the utensils that costs $10.00 so the knife costs 2 * 10 = $20.00. All total, each little kit will costs $14.00 for mitts, $16.00 for an apron, $10.00 for utensils and $20.00 for a knife for a total of 14 + 16 + 10 + 20 = $60.00. Each kit costs $60.00 and they are currently 25% off so that's a savings of 60 * .25 = $15.00. The kits are $60.00 and they are $15.00 off so they now cost 60 - 15 = $45.00. She needs to buy 3 kits and each kit costs $45.00 so that's 3 * 45 = $135.00. So the answer is 135.
