Question: Stella and Twinkle are filling up a truck with a capacity of 6000 stone blocks at the rate of 250 blocks per hour per person. They work for four hours and are then joined by 6 other people who also work at the same rate. How many hours did filling the truck take?
Answer: Stella and Twinkle filled up the truck at the rate of 250 blocks per hour per person, a total of 2 * 250 = 500 blocks per hour for both. After working for four hours, Stella and Twinkle had filled 4 * 500 = 2000 blocks into the truck. The number of blocks they had to put into the truck for it to be full is 6000 - 2000 = 4000. When 6 more people joined Stella and Twinkle, a total of 2 + 6 = 8 people were filling the truck now. Working at the rate of 250 blocks per person, the eight people filled the truck with 250 * 8 = 2000 blocks in one hour. If there were 4000 blocks that still needed to be put into the truck, the 8 people took 4000 / 2000 = 2 hours to fill the truck with the blocks. The total time it took to fill up the tank is 4 + 2 = 6 hours. The answer is 6.

Question: A shipping boat's crew consisted of 17 sailors, with five inexperienced sailors. Each experienced sailor was paid 1/5 times more than the inexperienced sailors. If the inexperienced sailors were paid $10 per hour for a 60-hour workweek, calculate the total combined monthly earnings of the experienced sailors.
Answer: If the experienced sailors received 1 / 5 times more money than the inexperienced sailors, they were paid 1 / 5 * 10 = $2 more. The total hourly earnings for the experienced sailors each is $10 + $2 = $12. In a 60 - hour workweek, an experienced sailor is paid 60 * $12 = $720. In a month, an experienced sailor is paid 4 * $720 = $2880. If there were five inexperienced sailors, the total number of experienced sailors was 17 - 5 = 12. If each experienced sailor was paid $2280 per month, the total combined monthly earnings for the experienced is 12 * 2880 = $34560. The answer is 34560.

There are 30 * 2 = 60 pieces of ham put on the pizza. There are 30 + 12 = 42 pieces of sausage put on the pizza. There are 30 / 6 = 5 pieces of pepperoni on each pizza slice. There are 60 / 6 = 10 pieces of ham on each pizza slice. There are 42 / 6 = 7 pieces of sausage on each pizza slice. There are 5 + 10 + 7 = 22 pieces altogether on each slice of pizza. The answer is 22.
