Answer this question:Pearl wants to order 5 monogrammed Christmas stockings for each of her 5 grandchildren and her own 4 children. The stockings are $20.00 each and currently 10% off. The monogramming will costs $5.00 per stocking. How much will the stockings costs?
She has 5 grandchildren 4 children so she needs 5 + 4 = 9 stockings. The stockings are $20.00 each and currently 10% off so that's 20 * .10 = $2.00 off. The stockings are $20.00 with a $2.00 discount so they are each 20 - 2 = $18.00. The stockings are now $18.00 and she needs 9 so that's $162.00. She also wants to monogram each stocking at $5.00 per stocking so that's 9 * 5 = $45.00. The stockings are $162.00 and the monogramming will cost $45.00 so the stockings will cost 162 + 45 = $207.00.
The answer is 1035.

Answer this question:James earns $20 an hour while working at his main job. He earns 20% less while working his second job. He works 30 hours at his main job and half that much at his second job. How much does he earn per week?
James earns 20 * .2 = $4 less while working his second job. So he earns 20 - 4 = $16 an hour. At his first job he earns 20 * 30 = $600. He works 30 / 2 = 15 hours at his second job. So he earns 15 * 16 = $240. So he earns 600 + 240 = $840 a week.
The answer is 840.

Answer this 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?
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.
