[Question]Emmett does 12 jumping jacks, 8 pushups, and 20 situps. What percentage of his exercises were pushups?
[Answer]First find the total number of exercises Emmett does: 12 jumping jacks + 8 pushups + 20 situps = 40 exercises. Then divide the number of pushups by the total number of exercises and multiply by 100% to express the answer as a percentage: 8 pushups / 40 exercises * 100% = 20%. The answer is 20.
Q: Rikki is writing and selling poetry. He sells his poems for $.01 a word. He can write 25 words of poetry in 5 minutes. If he has 2 hours to write poetry, how much can he expect to earn?
A: He will write for 120 hours because 2 x 60 = 120. He will write for 24 units of five minutes each because 120 / 5 = 24. He can write 600 words because 24 x 25 = 600. He can earn $6 because 600 x .01 = 6. The answer is 6.
Question: Jack is counting out his register at the end of his shift in the shop. His till has 2 $100 bills, 1 $50 bill, 5 $20 bills, 3 $10 bills, 7 $5 bills, 27 $1 bills, and a certain amount of change in coins. If he is supposed to leave $300 in notes as well as all the coins in the till and turn the rest in to the main office, how much money will he be handing in?
Answer: Jack's till has 2 * $100 + 1 * $50 + 5 * $20 + 3 * $10 + 7 * $5 + 27 * $1 bills, or $200 + $50 + $100 + $30 + $35 + $27 = $442. He's going to leave $300 in the till and turn the rest in to the office, so he'll be turning in $442 - $300 = $142. The answer is 142.
[Question]It takes 5 people to lift a car and twice as many people to lift a truck. How many people are needed to lift 6 cars and 3 trucks?
[Answer]It takes 5 x 2 = 10 people to lift a truck. 5 x 6 = 30 people are needed to lift the cars. 10 x 3 = 30 people are needed to lift the trucks. Altogether, 30 + 30 = 60 people are needed. The answer is 60.
Q: Yanni has 5 paintings that combined, take up 200 square feet. 3 of the paintings are 5 feet by 5 feet. 1 painting is 10 feet by 8 feet. If the final painting is 5 feet tall, how wide is it?
A: Each 5 by 5 painting is 25 square feet because 5 x 5 = 25. All three of them take up 75 square feet because 3 x 25 = 75. The 10 by 8 painting takes up 80 square feet because 10 x 8 = 80. These four paintings take up 155 square feet because 80 + 75 = 155. The final painting is 45 square feet because 200 - 155 = 45. If it is 5 feet wide it is 9 feet tall because 45 / 5 = 9. The answer is 9.

First quadruple the price of the wallet: $22 * 4 = $88. Then subtract $3 to find the cost of the purse: $88 - $3 = $85. Then add the price of the wallet and purse to find the total cost: $85 + $22 = $107. The answer is 107.
