[Question]An internet provider gives a 5% discount if the customer pays before the 25th day of the month. If the monthly internet rate is $50, how much did the customer pay in all for 4 months if he paid every 25th of the month?
[Answer]The 5% discount amounts to $50 x 5 / 100 = $2.50. So the total discount given to the customer for 4 months was $2.50 x 4 = $10. The customer was supposed to pay $50 x 4 = $200 in all for 4 months without discount. Since the customer is entitled to the discount, then he only paid a total of $200 - $10 = $190 for 4 months. The answer is 190.

A: The soda cans were consumed by 90 / 2 = 45 guests. The sparkling water was consumed by 90 / 3 = 30 guests. The juice bottles were consumed by 4 / 5 x 50 = 40 guests. In total there are 45 + 30 + 40 = 115 recyclable cans and bottles. The answer is 115.
Question: A wild tiger escapes the zoo. He escapes at 1 AM and zookeepers do not notice he is missing until 4 AM. He runs at a speed of 25 mph. It takes 2 more hours to find him but after 4 hours of running, the tiger slows his speed to 10 mph. He then gets chased for half an hour going 50 mph. How far away from the zoo was he caught?
Answer: He was running for 4 - 1 = 3 hours. So in that time he runs 3 * 25 = 75 miles. Since he slowed down after 4 hours, the time he spent running at 25mph was an additional 4 - 3 = 1 hours. So in the first hour they were finding him, he ran 1 * 25 = 25 miles. In the second hour they were finding him, he ran 1 * 10 = 10 miles. Finally, during the chase, he ran 50 * .5 = 25 miles. So he is 75 + 25 + 10 + 25 = 135 miles away. The answer is 135.

[Question]The vending machine fails to drop a snack when it’s purchased one in six times. One in ten times, it will accidentally drop two snacks. The rest of the time, it drops the purchased snack. If thirty people have used the vending machine once each to purchase a snack, how many snacks has the vending machine dropped?
