Q: One hundred people attended a party. Fifty percent of the attendees are women, thirty-five percent of them are men, and the rest are children. How many children attended the party?
A: Out of 100 attendees, 100 x 50 / 100 = 50 are women. While 100 x 35 / 100 = 35 are men. So there were a total of 50 + 35 = 85 men and women who attended the party. Thus, 100 - 85 = 15 children attended the party. The answer is 15.
Question: Jim and his Cousin are out at a restaurant. They each order a cheeseburger and milkshake. They also split an order to cheese fries. A cheeseburger is $3. A milkshake is $5. Cheese fries are $8. They spend 80% of their combined money. If Jim brought $20 how much did his cousin bring?
Answer: They spent $8 each on cheeseburgers and milkshakes because 3 + 5 = 8. They spent $16 on these items in total because 2 x 8 = 16. They spent $24 on their meal because 16 + 8 = 24. They had $30 to start because 24 / .8 = 30. His cousin had $10 because 30 - 20 = 10. The answer is 10.
[Question]Shem makes 2.5 times more money per hour than Kem. If Kem earns $4 per hour, how much does Shem earn for an 8-hour workday?

Q: A cook had 300 carrots in a bucket he was using to cook meals for a restaurant. Before lunch, he had used 2/5 of the carrots. By the end of the day, he had chopped and used 3/5 of the remaining carrots. How many carrots were not used that day?
A: Before lunch, the cook had used 2 / 5 * 300 = 120 carrots. The number of remaining carrots after the cook used 2 / 5 of them is 300 - 120 = 180. The cook had used 3 / 5 * 180 = 108 of the remaining carrots by the end of the day. The number of carrots that the cook did not use that day is 180 - 108 = 72. The answer is 72.
Question: There are 80 passengers on the airplane where the number of men and women is equal. The rest of the passengers are children. How many children are on the airplane if there are 30 men?

The students are divided into 3 + 2 = 5 parts where 3 parts are for males and 2 parts are for females. Each part represents 1000 / 5 = 200 students. So, there are 3 x 200 = 600 males. And there are 2 x 200 = 400 females. Hence, 600 x 2 / 3 = 400 males play basketball. And 400 x 1 / 5 = 80 females play basketball. A total of 400 + 80 = 480 students play basketball. Therefore, 1000 - 480 = 520 do not like to play basketball. The percentage of the school that do not like to play basketball is 520 / 1000 * 100 = 52. The answer is 52.
