[Question]When three friends sold their video games, Ryan, the first of the three friends, received $50 more than Jason from his sales. Jason received 30% more money than Zachary from selling his video games. If Zachary sold 40 games at $5 each, calculate the total amount of money the three friends received together from the sale of the video games.
[Answer]The total amount of money that Zachary received from selling his video games is $40 * 5 = $200. Jason received 30 / 100 * $200 = $60 more than the amount Zachary received after selling his games. The total amount of money that Jason received is $60 + $200 = $260. Together, Zachary and Jason received $260 + $200 = $460 from the sale of their video games. Ryan received $260 + $50 = $310 from the sale of his video games. The three friends made a total of $310 + $460 = $770 from the sale of the video games. The answer is 770.
Q: Tim had a birthday party with a clown that cost $100 an hour for 4 hours. He also rented a bounce house for half the time that cost 3 times as much an hour. Everything else for the party cost $1000. How much did his birthday cost?
A: The clown cost 100 * 4 = $400. The bounce house cost 100 * 3 = $300 per hour. He rented it for 4 / 2 = 2 hours. So it cost 300 * 2 = $600. That means the total cost was 400 + 600 + 1000 = $2000. The answer is 2000.
Question: Quinton is looking to add 4 fruit trees to his backyard. He wants to plant 2 apple trees that will be 10 feet wide each and need 12 feet between them. The peach trees will be closer to the house and will grow to be 12 feet wide and will need 15 feet between each tree. All told, how much space will these trees take up in his yard?
Answer: Both apple trees will be 10 feet wide at maturity so they will be 2 * 10 = 20 feet wide. Quinton will need to leave 12 feet between these 2 trees so the apple trees will take up 20 + 12 = 32 feet. Both peach trees will be 12 feet wide at maturity so they will be 2 * 12 = 24 feet wide. Quinton will need to leave 15 feet between these 2 trees so the peach trees will take up 24 + 15 = 39 feet. Together, the apple trees will take up 32 feet and the peach trees will take up 39 feet so they will take 32 + 39 = 71 feet. The answer is 71.
