Q: Mica went to the grocery store and bought 2 kilograms of pasta that costs $1.5; 1/4 kilogram of ground beef costs $8 for 1 kilogram; two jars of pasta sauce costs $2 per jar. Mica also wants to buy a $6 Quesadilla for snacks. How much money should she have with her to buy all those?
A: Two kilograms of pasta cost $1.5 x 2 = $3. One - fourth kilogram of ground beef cost $8 x 1 / 4 = $2. Two jars of pasta sauce cost $2 x 2 = $4. The total cost for the pasta, beef, and sauce is $3 + $2 + $4 = $9. Since Mica also wants to buy Quesadilla, she should have $9 + $6 = $15. The answer is 15.
Question: Four small panda bears and five bigger panda bears eat 25 pounds and 40 pounds of fresh bamboo sprouts every day, respectively. How many pounds of bamboo do the 9 pandas eat in a week?
Answer: The small panda bears eat a total of 4 x 25 = 100 pounds of bamboo every day. The bigger panda bears eat a total of 5 x 40 = 200 pounds of bamboo every day. So, the 9 pandas eat a total of 100 + 200 = 300 pounds of bamboo every day. Therefore, they eat a total of 300 x 7 = 2100 pounds in a week. The answer is 2100.
[Question]The leak in Jerry's roof drips 3 drops a minute into the pot he put under it. Each drop is 20 ml, and the pot holds 3 liters. How long will it take the pot to be full?
[Answer]First find the pot's volume in ml: 3 liters * 1000 ml / liter = 3000 ml. Then find the number of ml that enter the pot per minute: 3 drops / minute * 20 ml / drop = 60 ml / minute. Then divide the volume of the pot by the volume that enters it every minute: 3000 ml / 60 ml / minute = 50 minutes. The answer is 50.
Q: Julieta went to the store to buy a backpack and three ring-binders for her school supplies. She knew the backpack was $50, and each ring-binder cost was $20. However, at the store, she found out that the price of a back had increased by $5, and the price of a ring-binder had reduced by $2. Calculate the total amount of money Julieta spent at the store.
A: Initially, a backpack cost was $50; when it increased by $5, the price became $50 + $5 = $55. The price of a ring - binder $20, when it reduced by $2, the price became $20 - $2 = $18. If she wanted to buy 3 ring - binders, she spent $18 * 3 = $54. In total, Julieta spent $55 + $54 = $109. The answer is 109.
Question: A group of researchers are studying a colony of penguins. Their results show that the size doubled in the first year they watched the colony, then tripled in the next year. This year, however, harsh conditions meant the colony only gained 129 penguins. The colony has 1077 penguins in it now. Each penguin eats one and a half fish every day. How many fish did the whole colony catch per day to eat at the beginning of the first year?
Answer: The colony had 1077 - 129 = 948 penguins in it at the beginning of this year. At the beginning of the second year, the colony had 948 / 3 = 316 penguins in it. At the beginning of the first year, it had 316 / 2 = 158 penguins in it. Thus, at the beginning of the first year, the penguin colony was catching 158 * 1 1 / 2 = 237 fish per day. The answer is 237.
Q: A plumber is trying to decide which of three different jobs he should take to make the most money. The first job involves fixing three toilets and three sinks at an apartment complex. The second involves two toilets and five sinks at a different apartment complex. The third involves fixing one toilet, two showers and three sinks at a third apartment complex. If the plumber charges $30 to fix a sink, $40 to fix a shower and $50 to fix a toilet, what is the most money the plumber can earn if he can only choose one of these three jobs?
A:
If the plumber chooses the first job, he would earn 3 * 50 + 3 * 30 = $240. If he chooses the second, he'd earn 2 * 50 + 5 * 30 = $250. If he chooses the third, he'd earn 50 + 2 * 40 + 3 * 30 = $220. Therefore, the most money he can earn from one of these jobs is $250. The answer is 250.
