question:f the temperatures recorded for Wayupnorth, Canada over four days were -36 degrees Fahrenheit, +13 degrees Fahrenheit, -15 degrees Fahrenheit, and -10 degrees Fahrenheit, what is the average temperature in degrees Fahrenheit for those four days?
answer:To find the average temperature, we need to add up all the temperatures and then divide by the number of days. The sum of the temperatures is -36 + 13 + (-15) + (-10) = -48 degrees Fahrenheit. Since we have 4 days, the average temperature is -48 / 4 = -12 degrees Fahrenheit. -12 The answer is: -12
question:Christina and her friend are driving across the state. When Christina is driving the speed limit is 30 miles per hour. When her friend is driving, the speed limit is 40 miles per hour. The drive is 210 miles total. If her friend drives for 3 hours and both drive at the speed limit, how many minutes will Christina drive?
answer:If Christina's friend drives for 3 hours at 40 miles per hour, then they will travel 3 * 40 = 120 miles. Since the total drive is 210 miles, Christina will drive the remaining distance, which is 210 - 120 = 90 miles. If Christina drives at 30 miles per hour, then it will take her 90 / 30 = 3 hours to drive the remaining distance. There are 60 minutes in an hour, so Christina will drive for 3 * 60 = 180 minutes. 180 The answer is: 180
question:Jessa needs to make cupcakes for 3 fourth-grade classes that each have 30 students and a P.E. class with 50 students. How many cupcakes does she need to make?

question:Since it is Maurice's turn to host this year’s neighborhood cookout, he goes to the local wholesale club to buy ground beef. The wholesale club sells ground beef in 5-pound packages. Maurice wants to make one 2-pound burger for each person that attends, so he purchases 4 packages of ground beef. How many people can Maurice invite to the cookout so that everybody, including himself, gets a burger?
answer:Maurice purchases 4 packages of ground beef, and each package weighs 5 pounds, so he has a total of 4 * 5 = 20 pounds of ground beef. He wants to make one 2-pound burger for each person, so he can make a total of 20 / 2 = 10 burgers. Since Maurice wants to make sure that everybody, including himself, gets a burger, he can invite a maximum of 10 - 1 = 9 people to the cookout. 9 The answer is: 9
