Question: Niko has bought 9 pairs of socks that cost $2 each and plans to resell them. He wants to gain 25% profit from four of the pairs of socks and $0.2 profit each for the other 5 pairs of socks. How much will his total profit be?
Answer: Niko will earn $2 x 25 / 100 = $0.5 profit for each of the first four pairs of socks. So, his total profit for the four pairs of socks will be $0.5 x 4 = $2. His total earnings for the 5 pairs of socks is $0.2 x 5 = $1. Therefore, his total profit will be $2 + $1 = $3. The answer is 3.

Q: Carson is a night security guard. He's supposed to patrol the outside of a warehouse that's 600 feet long and 400 feet wide. If Carson is supposed to circle the warehouse 10 times, but gets tired and skips 2 times, how far does he walk in one night?
A: First find the total distance Carson walks along the warehouse's long sides: 600 feet / side * 2 sides = 1200 feet. Then find the total distance Carson walks along the warehouse's short sides: 400 feet / side * 2 sides = 800 feet. Add those two amounts to find the total distance walk in one circle: 1200 feet + 800 feet = 2000 feet. Then find the number of circles Carson actually walks: 10 circles - 2 circles = 8 circles. Then multiply the distance of one circle by the number of circles Carson makes: 2000 feet / circle * 8 circles = 16000 feet. The answer is 16000.
Question: Marcus has received a commission for as many paintings as possible. Marcus plans out his drawings so that his client can receive some of the paintings as soon as possible but it is still going to take a long time. On the first day, he paints 2 paintings. He then paints every day and each day, he paints twice as many paintings as he painted the day before. If he paints for 5 days, how many paintings will he have painted in total?
Answer: If Marcus creates 2 paintings on the first day, then he can paint 2 paintings * 2 = 4 paintings on the 2nd day. So he paints 4 paintings * 2 = 8 paintings on the 3rd day. He then paints 8 paintings * 2 = 16 paintings on the 4th day. And finally paints 16 paintings * 2 = 32 paintings on the 5th day. Marcus therefore has painted a total of 2 + 4 + 8 + 16 + 32 = 62 paintings. The answer is 62.

20 pounds of fudge at $2.50 / pounds is 20 * 2.50 = $50.00. The 5 dozen truffles were sold in individual units so a dozen is equal to 12 so 5 * 12 = 60. 60 chocolate truffles, at $1.50 each sold for 60 * 1.50 = $90.00. The 3 dozen chocolate pretzels sold in individual units so a dozen is equal to 12 so 3 * 12 = 36. 36 chocolate pretzels sold for $2.00 each sold for 36 * 2 = $72.00. All total, the store made 50 + 90 + 72 = $212.00 from candy sales. The answer is 212.
