Question: The civic league was hosting a pancake breakfast fundraiser. A stack of pancakes was $4.00 and you could add bacon for $2.00. They sold 60 stacks of pancakes and 90 slices of bacon. How much did they raise?
Answer: The pancakes were $4.00 a stack and they sold 60 stacks for a total of 4 * 60 = $240.00. The bacon was $2.00 a slice and they sold 90 slices for a total of 2 * 90 = $180.00. They sold $240 in pancakes and $180 in bacon for a total of 240 + 180 = $420.00. The answer is 420.

Question: Tanesha needs to buy rope so cut into 10 pieces that are each six inches long. She sees a 6-foot length of rope that cost $5 and also sees 1-foot lengths of rope that cost $1.25 each. What is the least she has to spend to get the rope she needs?
Answer: She needs 60 inches of rope because 10 x 6 equals 60. The six - foot length of rope is 72 inches long because 6 x 12 = 72. The six - foot length of rope would give her 12 pieces because 72 / 6 = 12. The six - foot length is long enough because 12 > 10. Each 1 - foot rope equals 12 inches. She would need 5 of the 1 - foot ropes because 60 / 12 = 5. If she bought one - foot ropes it would cost $6.25 because 5 x 1.25 = 6.25. The cheapest rope to buy is the 6 - foot rope because 5 < 6.25. The answer is 5.

Question: Buffy has a sailboat with a planing hull that she sails in the Gulf of Mexico. Under optimal wind conditions, the use of two sails brings the ship to the speed of 50 knots, whereas under the same conditions, the use of one sail brings her ship to the speed of 25 knots. A knot is a nautical term for speed equal to 1 nautical mile per hour, and one nautical mile equals 1.15 land miles. If she travels in her sailboat under optimal wind conditions for 4 hours with one sail and then for another 4 hours with two sails, what is the total distance, in land miles, that she will travel?
Answer: Under optimal wind conditions, if her ship sails 4 hours with 1 sail, she will travel 4 * 25 = 100 nautical miles. Under optimal wind conditions, if her ship sails 4 hours with 2 sails, she will travel 4 * 50 = 200 nautical miles. In total, she will travel 100 + 200 = 300 nautical miles. If 1 nautical mile is equivalent to 1.15 land miles, then Buffy will travel 300 * 1.15 = 345 land miles. The answer is 345.

Question: Clarissa is responsible for getting 10 copies of a manuscript printed and having each copy bound. The printers charge $0.05 per page to copy it and $5.00 per manuscript to have it bound. If the manuscript is 400 pages, how much will it cost to have it copied and bound 10 times?

The manuscript is 400 pages and the printers charge $0.05 per page for a total of 400 * .05 = $20.00 per manuscript. She needs 10 copies made and it costs $20.00 per manuscript so that's 10 * 20 = $200.00. She also needs each of the 10 copies to be bound, which is $5.00 per manuscript so that's 5 * 10 = $50.00. It will cost $200.00 to have them printed and $50.00 to have them bound for a total of 200 + 50 = $250.00. The answer is 250.
