Question: Irene shares half of a small apple with her dog every day. A small apple weighs about 1/4 of a pound. She can currently buy apples for $2.00 a pound. How much will she spend so that she and her dog have enough apples to last for 2 weeks?
Answer: There are 7 days in a week and she needs apples for 2 weeks so that's 7 * 2 = 14 days. She shares an apple with her dog every day so for 14 days so she needs 1 * 14 = 14 apples. Each apple weighs 1 / 4 of a pound and she needs 14 apples so that's .25 * 14 = 3.5 pounds of apples. She needs 3.5 pounds of apples and they are on sale for $2.00 a pound so she will spend 3.5 * 2 = $7.00 for apples. The answer is 7.

Answer: Each week, David will spend 3 hours + 3 hours + 4 hours = 10 hours in class. Add to that his 4 hours of small group work, 4 + 10 = 14 hours a week. He will spend 14 hours x 24 weeks = 336 hours on the course. The answer is 336.
[Question]Jed collects stamp cards. Every week, he gets 6 cards. But every two weeks, he gives 2 cards to his friends. If Jed started with 20 cards, after how many weeks will he have a total of 40 cards?
[Answer]In the first week, Jed has 20 + 6 = 26 cards. In the second week, he has 26 + 6 = 32 cards. But he is left with 32 - 2 = 30 cards on the 2nd week after giving 2 cards to his friend. Then Jed has 30 + 6 = 36 cards on the 3rd week. He has 36 + 6 = 42 cards on the 4th week. After giving his friend 2 cards, he is then left with 42 - 2 = 40 cards on the 4th week. Hence, Jed will have a total of 40 cards in 4 weeks. The answer is 4.
