Last week, Tony went to a toy store and bought $250 a set of Lego blocks, a $120 worth toy sword, and a $35 play dough. He bought 3 sets of lego, 7 toy swords, and 10 play doughs. How much did Tony pay in total?
Let's think: The total cost for the legos are 3 x $250 = $750. The total cost for the toy swords is 7 x $120 = $840. The total cost for the play doughs is 10 x $35 = $350. Therefore the total cost for everything is $750 + $840 + $350 = $1940.. The answer is: 1940.

A school cafeteria uses ground mince to cook lasagnas and cottage pies. They make 100 lasagnas, which use 2 pounds of ground mince each, and cottage pies, which use 3 pounds of ground mince each. If the cafeteria has used 500 pounds of ground mince in total, how many cottage pies did they make?
Let's think: The cafeteria used 100 lasagnas * 2 pounds of ground mince = 200 pounds of ground mince for the lasagnas. This means they used 500 pounds of ground mince in total – 200 pounds of ground mince for the lasagnas = 300 pounds of ground mince for the cottage pies. So they must have made 300 pounds of ground mince for the cottage pies / 3 pounds of ground mince per cottage pie = 100 cottage pies.. The answer is: 100.

Carmen had 28 cats and 18 dogs before she gave 3 of the cats up for adoption. How many more cats than dogs does Carmen have now?
Let's think: First find the number of cats Carmen has left: 28 cats - 3 cats = 25 cats. Then subtract the number of dogs from the number of cats to find the difference: 25 cats - 18 dogs = 7 more cats.. The answer is: 7.

He bought 5 * 12 = 60 sodas. So he had 60 + 10 = 70 sodas. So he drank 70 / 7 = 10 sodas per day.. The answer is: 10.
