Q: A teacher asked Adelaide, Ephraim, and Kolton to buy ducks and monitor their growth patterns and features for their science class. Adelaide bought twice the number of ducks that Ephraim bought, while Ephraim bought 45 fewer ducks than Kolton. If Adelaide bought 30 ducks, what's the average number of ducks the three bought?
A: If Adelaide bought 30 ducks, Ephraim bought 30 ducks / 2 = 15 ducks. Since Ephraim bought 45 fewer ducks than Kolton, Kolton bought 45 ducks + 15 ducks = 60 ducks. The total number of ducks the three bought is 60 ducks + 15 ducks + 30 ducks = 105 ducks. The average number of ducks each bought is 105 ducks / 3 people = 35 ducks / person. The answer is 35.

Answer: There are 12 / 2 = 6 birds left. There are 9 - 3 = 6 puppies left. There are 15 - 7 = 8 spiders left. The pet store owner has 5 + 6 + 6 + 8 = 25 animals left. The answer is 25.

Q: A shopping center sells T-shirts at $8 each, a sweater at $18, and a jacket at $80. The jacket is on sale with a 10% discount. The sales tax is 5%. Kevin wants to buy six T-shirts, four sweaters, and five jackets for his children. How much does Kevin have to pay for all the items, including the sales tax?
A: The six T - shirts cost 6 x $8 = $48. The four sweaters cost 4 x $18 = $72. And five jackets normally cost 5 x $80 = $400. So, a discount of 10 / 100 x $400 = $40 for the five jackets. Thus, the selling price of the five jackets is $400 - $40 = $360. Hence, the total cost of all the items is $48 + $72 + $360 = $480. The sales tax is equal to 5 / 100 x $480 = $24. Therefore, Kevin has to pay $480 + $24 = $504. including the sales tax. The answer is 504.
