A beadshop earns a third of its profit on Monday, a quarter of its profit on Tuesday and the rest of its profit on Wednesday. The shop makes a total profit of $1,200. How much profit, in dollars, was made on Wednesday?
Let's think: On Monday, 1200 / 3 = 400 dollars were made. On Tuesday, 1200 / 4 = 300 dollars were made. On Wednesday, 1200 - 400 - 300 = 500 dollars were made.. The answer is: 500.

Johnny TV makes 25 percent more movies than L&J Productions each year. If L&J Productions produces 220 movies in a year, how many movies does the two production companies produce in five years combined?
Let's think: Johnny TV makes 25 / 100 * 220 = 55 more movies than L&J Productions each year. The total number of movies that Johnny TV makes in a year is 220 + 55 = 275. Together, Johnny TV and L&J Productions make 275 + 220 = 495 movies in a year. In five years, the two companies make 495 * 5 = 2475 movies.. The answer is: 2475.

Jame is trying to learn to tear playing cards. He can tear 30 cards at a time. A new deck of cards has 55 cards if you include the jokers and blank cards. He tears cards 3 times a week. If he buys 18 decks how many weeks can he go?
Let's think: He tears 30 * 3 = 90 cards a week. He bought 55 * 18 = 990 cards. So he can tear for 990 / 90 = 11 weeks.. The answer is: 11.

First find the total number of tulips in the eyes: 2 eyes * 8 tulips / eye = 16 tulips. Then find the number of tulips in the background: 18 tulips * 9 = 162 tulips. Then add the number of tulips in the eyes, smile, and background to find the total number of tulips: 16 tulips + 162 tulips + 18 tulips = 196 tulips.. The answer is: 196.
