Q: A baker has 10 cheesecakes on the display while 15 more are still in the fridge. If the baker has sold 7 cheesecakes from the display, how many more cheesecakes are left to be sold?
A: A baker has a total of 10 + 15 = 25 cheesecakes both from the display and the fridge. Therefore, there are 25 - 7 = 18 more cheesecakes to be sold. The answer is 18.
Question: Karen's class fund contains only $10 and $20 bills, which amount to $120. The number of $10 bills is twice as many $20 bills. How many $20 bills do they have in their fund?
Answer: If n is the number of $20 bills then 2n is the number of $10 bills. So the equation will be $10(2n) + $20n = $120. By combining like terms, the equation becomes 40n = 120. So, the value of n which represents the number of $20 bills is 120 / 40 = 3. The answer is 3.
[Question]A box is 8 inches in height, 10 inches in width, and 12 inches in length. A wooden building block is 3 inches in height, 2 inches in width, and 4 inches in length. How many building blocks can fit into the box?
[Answer]The volume of the box is 8 x 10 x 12 = 960 cu in. The volume of a wooden block is 3 x 2 x 4 = 24 cu in. 960 / 24 = 40 wooden blocks can fit into the box. The answer is 40.
Q: Martha is making centerpieces for her Thanksgiving dinner. There are six centerpieces, and each centerpiece uses 8 roses, twice as many orchids as roses, and a certain number of lilies. If Martha wants to spend $2700 total, and each flower costs $15, how many lilies will she put in each centerpiece?
A: First figure out how many total flowers Martha is going to buy by dividing her total spending by the price per flower: $2700 / $15 / flower = 180 flowers. Now figure out how many flowers are in each centerpiece by dividing the total number of flowers by the number of centerpieces: 180 flowers / 6 centerpieces = 30 flowers / centerpiece. Now figure out how many orchids are in each centerpiece by multiplying the number of roses per centerpiece by 2: 8 roses / centerpiece * 2 = 16 orchids / centerpiece. Now subtract the number of roses and orchids per centerpiece from the total number of flowers per centerpiece to find the number of lilies per centerpiece: 30 flowers - 16 orchids - 8 roses = 6 lilies. The answer is 6.
Question: At a roller derby, 4 teams are competing. Each team is made up of 10 members, and each member needs a pair of roller skates to compete in and another pair of skates as a backup. None of the skates have laces yet, so each member is offered 3 sets of laces per pair of skates. How many sets of laces have been handed out?
Answer: There are a total of 4 teams * 10 members per team = 40 team members. Each person receives 1 pair of competing roller skates + 1 pair of backup roller skates = 2 pairs of roller skates. So there are a total of 40 team members * 2 pairs of roller skates per team member = 80 roller skates. There were therefore 80 roller skates * 3 sets of laces per pair of roller skates = 240 sets of laces handed out. The answer is 240.

At this point in the season, Donovan has scored 26 * 15 = 390 points. To reach his goal of 30 points per game, he would have to finish the season with a total of 30 * 20 = 600 points. For the remaining 5 games, Donovan needs to score 600 - 390 = 210 points. Therefore, he needs to average 210 / 5 = 42 points per game. The answer is 42.
