  ### Antique Table Price
  
  The price of an antique table varies directly with age of the antique (in years) and with the surface area (in square feet). The price varies inversely with the number of scratches on the surface.  A table which is 120 years old, is 3 feet x 8 feet , and has n scratches on the surface, costs \$4,320. A table which is 140 years old, is 4 feet x 8 feet, and has n - 1 scratches on the surface, costs \$7,680.  If a table 150 years old, which is 4 feet x 6 feet , costs \$10,800, how many scratches are on the surface?
  
  ### Math Textbooks for Sale
  
  The cost of a textbook is directly proportional to the number of math problems it contains, and inversely proportional to the number of authors who wrote the book. A textbook which contains 200 problems, and was written by 3 authors costs \$5 less than a textbook which contains 150 problems, and was written by 2 authors. What is the cost of a textbook containing 450 problems, and written by 4 authors?
  
  ### Six more than Twice the Smaller
  
  The sum of two numbers is six more than twice the smaller number, and if the larger number is multiplied by three, the result is ten less than seven times the smaller number. What is the larger number?
  
  ### Manny Climbs a Skyscraper
  
  Manny is climbing to the top of skyscraper, starting from the ground floor (Floor #1). There are 12 steps between each floor. When he reaches the landing for the nth floor, the number of floors he has left to climb is equal to a quarter of the number of steps he's already climbed. When he reaches the landing for the kth floor, the number of floors he has left to climb is equal to one sixth the number of steps he's already climbed.
  
  When Manny has climbed halfway to the top of the skyscraper, the number of steps he has climbed is a three digit number, with the digits in descending order from left to right.
  
  If the skyscraper has at least 40 floors, and no more than 110 floors, how many stairs does Manny climb in all?
  
  ### Three Digits by Sums
  
  I am a three digit number. The sum of my first two digits is 15, and the sum of my last two digits is 8. The sum of my first and last digits is 7. What number am I?
  
  ### Henry's Books
  
  Henry has five books. The third book has 100 fewer pages than the first and second books combined. The fourth book has 50 pages more than twice the number of pages in the first book. The last book has 150 fewer pages than three times the second book. In all, his books have 748 pages.  Together, his first and second books have 216 pages. How many pages does his largest book have?
  
  ### Handshakes
  
  Mr. T wants each of his math students to shake hands with each of his other math students exactly once. He also wants each of his math students to shake Mr. H's hand twice. Mr. T shakes Mr. H's hand once. If there were 78 handshakes in all, how many math students does Mr. T have?
  
  ### Difference System
  
  The difference between two numbers is twice the smaller number. The smaller number is 10 less than the larger number. Find the smaller number.
  
  ### A Sum of Sums
  
  If the sum of an integer and the next consecutive integer is added to the sum of another integer and its next consecutive odd integer, the result is 71.
  
  If the smaller of the two numbers is subtracted from twice the larger, the result is 29.  What are the two numbers?
  
  ### Difference and Sum
  
  Two numbers add to twenty-seven more than the opposite of the smaller number. The numbers differ by three. What is the larger number?
