Q: Papi Calot prepared his garden to plant potatoes. He planned to plant 7 rows of 18 plants each. But he still has a bit of room left, so he’s thinking about adding 15 additional potato plants. How many plants does Papi Calot have to buy?
A: Let’s first calculate the number of plants that Papi had planned: 7 rows * 18 plants / row = 126 plants. Now let’s add the other plants: 126 plants + 15 plants = 141 plants. So Papi has to buy 141 plants. The answer is 141.
Question: Tim decides to do a movie marathon. The first movie is 2 hours long. The next movie is 50% longer. And the last movie is 1 hour shorter than the combined time of the previous 2 movies. How long was his movie marathon?
Answer: The second movie was 2 * .5 = 1` hour longer than the first movie. So the second movie was 2 + 1 = 3 hours long. That means the first two movies had a combined time of 3 + 2 = 5 hours. So the last movie had a length of 5 - 1 = 4 hours. That means the marathon lasted 5 + 4 = 9 hours. The answer is 9.
[Question]The state of Virginia had 3.79 inches of rain in March, 4.5 inches of rain in April, 3.95 inches of rain in May, 3.09 inches of rain in June and 4.67 inches in July. What is the average rainfall amount, in inches, in Virginia?
[Answer]It rained for a total of 3.79 + 4.5 + 3.95 + 3.09 + 4.67 = 20 inches. The rain period is from March through July for a total of 5 months so the average rainfall is 20 / 5 = 4 inches of rain per month. The answer is 4.
Q: In one day, 200 people visit The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. Half of the visitors are residents of New York City. Of the NYC residents, 30% are college students. If the cost of a college student ticket is $4, how much money does the museum get from college students that are residents of NYC?
A: The number of visitors that are residents of NYC is 200 / 2 = 100 visitors. The number of NYC resident visitors that are college students is 100 * 0.30 = 30 visitors. The money from the college students that are residents of NYC is 30 * $4 = $120. The answer is 120.
Question: Bob is building a vegetable garden. It is 220 feet long by 120 feet wide. Half of the garden is going to be tilled land. A third of the rest of it will have trellises for vining plants, and the rest will be devoted to raised beds. How big will the raised bed section of the garden be?
Answer: The garden is 220 * 120 = 26,400 square feet. The tilled land will take up half the area, and the trellises and raised beds will be the other half. Each half is 26,400 / 2 = 13,200 square feet. The trellises will take up 1 / 3 of the remaining land, so the raised beds will take 1 - 1 / 3 = 2 / 3 of the remaining land. So the total area of the raised bed area will be 13,200 square feet * (2 / 3) = 8,800 square feet. The answer is 8800.
