Q: Maci is planning for the new school year and goes to the store to buy pens. She needs ten blue pens and 15 red pens. If a blue pen costs ten cents each and a red pen costs twice as much as the blue pen, how much money does Maci pay for the pens?
A: Maci pays 10 * $0.10 = $1 for the blue pens. Each red pen costs 2 * $0.10 = $0.20. She pays 15 * $0.20 = $3.00 for the red pens. To buy all the pens she needs, Maci pays $3 + $1 = $4. The answer is 4.
Question: John's dog has a litter of 8 puppies. He gives away half of them. He keeps one of the remaining puppies. He then takes the remaining puppies and sells them each for $600. He had to give the owner of the stud $300. How much money does he profit?
Answer: He had 8 / 2 = 4 left after giving some puppies away. He then keeps one so he sells 4 - 1 = 3 puppies. That means he made 3 * 600 = $1800. So his profit was 1800 - 300 = $1500. The answer is 1500.
[Question]A printing press is printing brochures. The press prints 20 single-page spreads, and twice as many double-page spreads. For each 4 pages printed for the spreads, the press prints a block of 4 ads, each of which take up a quarter of a page. The brochures can be arranged in any order as long as they are made up of 5 pages each. How many brochures is the printing press creating?
[Answer]There are a total of 20 single - page spreads * 2 = 40 double - page spreads. As these are made up of 2 pages each, there are 40 double - page spreads * 2 pages = 80 pages in the double - page spreads. In total, there are 20 single - pages + 80 double - pages = 100 pages in the spreads. A block of ads is printed every 4 pages, so there will be 100 pages / 4 pages / block = 25 blocks of ads. This is a total of 25 blocks * 4 ads = 100 ads. As each ad takes up a quarter of a page, this must create an additional 100 ads * 0.25 = 25 pages. Therefore, the press has printed 100 pages from the spreads + 25 pages of ads = 125 pages. Since brochures are made up of 5 pages each, this creates a total of 125 pages / 5 = 25 brochures. The answer is 25.
Q: Together Felipe and Emilio needed a combined time of 7.5 years to build their homes. Felipe finished in half the time of Emilio. How many months did it take Felipe to build his house?
A: Let F = the number of years Felipe needed to build his house. Emilio = 2F. 3F = 7.5 years. F = 2.5 years. 2.5 years = 30 months. It took Felipe 30 months to build his house. The answer is 30.
Question: Edward the plumber is replacing a pipe in a bathroom wall. He needs to use 40 feet of copper pipe to complete the job. For every 5 feet of pipe, Edward must use one tightening bolt, and for every bolt, he uses two washers. He buys a bag of 20 washers for the job. After he completes the bathroom job, how many washers will be remaining in the bag?
Answer: If Edward needs to use 1 bolt per every five feet of piping, then for a job requiring 40 - feet of piping, he will use 40 / 5 = 8 tightening bolts. If for every 1 bolt he uses two washers, then he will need 8 * 2 = 16 washers to complete the job. if he buys a bag containing 20 washers, and removes 16, he will have 20 - 16 = 4 washers remaining in the bag. The answer is 4.
Q: Celina enjoys hiking in the mountains. Due to a lack of proper equipment, she decided to order a new pair of boots, a flashlight, and a special hoodie. The hoodie cost $80 and the flashlight was only 20% of that price. The pair of boots cost was $110, but due to a special promotion, Celina was able to buy them 10% cheaper. How much did Celina spend in total on the above-mentioned equipment?
A:
The flashlight was 20% of the price of the hoodie, so 80 * 20 / 100 = $16. The promotion for a pair of boots was 110 * 10 / 100 = $11. So the pair of boots cost 110 - 11 = $99. Celina therefore spent 80 + 16 + 99 = $195 on the equipment. The answer is 195.

[Answer]There are a total of 20 single - page spreads * 2 = 40 double - page spreads.
