[Question]With her savings, Sara bought two books: a book for 5.5£ and a book for 6.5£. She gives a 20£ bill to the seller. How much change does she get back?
[Answer]To find out how much the saleswoman should return to her, we have to find out how much Sara spent in total. She spent 5.5£ + 6.5£ = 12£. So she gives 20£ and the cashier should keep 12£. The cashier therefore returns the difference between these two sums: 20£ – 12£ = 8£. The answer is 8.
Q: Bill thought he bought 70 chihuahuas, but some of them turned out to be rats. If the number of rats was 6 times the number of chihuahuas, how many rats did he buy?
A: Let r be the number of rats and c be the number of real chihuahuas. We know that r + c = 70 and r = 6c. Substituting the second equation into the first equation, we get 6c + c = 70. Combining like terms, we get 7c = 70. Dividing both sides by 7, we get c = 10. Substituting this back into r = 6c, we get r = 10 * 6 = 60. The answer is 60.
Question: A mechanic charges $60 an hour to repair a car. He works 8 hours a day for 14 days on one car. The mechanic also used $2500 in parts. How much did the car's owner have to pay?
Answer: The mechanic worked 8 * 14 = 112 hours. So the labor cost 60 * 112 = $6720. That means the total cost was 6720 + 2500 = $9220. The answer is 9220.
[Question]Jack is a soccer player. He needs to buy two pairs of socks and a pair of soccer shoes. Each pair of socks cost $9.50, and the shoes cost $92. Jack has $40. How much more money does Jack need?
[Answer]The total cost of two pairs of socks is $9.50 x 2 = $19. The total cost of the socks and the shoes is $19 + $92 = $111. Jack need $111 - $40 = $71 more. The answer is 71.
Q: Jackson is laying tile in a courtyard that measures 10 feet by 25 feet. He needs 4 tiles per square foot of space. 40% of the tiles are green marble that costs $3/tile, and the rest are red tile that costs $1.50/tile. How much does he pay total for tile?
A: First find the area of the courtyard: 10 feet * 25 feet = 250 feet. Then multiply the area by the number of tiles per square foot to find the total number of tiles needed: 250 feet * 4 tiles / square foot = 1000 tiles. Then multiply the number of tiles by the percentage that are green to find the total number of green tiles: 1000 tiles * 40% = 400 tiles. Subtract that number from the total number of tiles to find the number of red tiles: 1000 tiles - 400 tiles = 600 tiles. Multiply the number of red tiles by the price per red tile to find the cost of the red tiles: 600 tiles * $1.50 / tile = $900. Multiply the number of green tiles by the price per green tile to find the cost of the green tiles: 400 tiles * $3.00 / tile = $1200. Then add the cost of each type of tile to find the total cost: $900 + $1200 = $2100. The answer is 2100.
Question: Jon buys 2 coffees a day from his favorite coffee shop. They cost $2 each. How much does he spend in April?
