question:f Marta received a shipment of 1000 kg of tomatoes on Friday, sold 300 kg on Saturday, had 200 kg rot and be discarded on Sunday, and received a shipment twice the size of the first one on Monday morning, how many kilograms of tomatoes did she have available for sale on Tuesday?
answer:Marta received a shipment of 1000 kg of tomatoes on Friday. She sold 300 kg on Saturday, so she had 1000 - 300 = 700 kg left. On Sunday, 200 kg of tomatoes went bad, so she had 700 - 200 = 500 kg left. On Monday, she received a shipment twice the size of the first one, so she received 2 * 1000 = 2000 kg of tomatoes. Therefore, on Monday, she had a total of 500 + 2000 = 2500 kg of tomatoes. On Tuesday, she still has the same amount of tomatoes she had on Monday, so she has 2500 kg available for sale. 2500 The answer is: 2500
question:Nina wants to buy a new video game with her allowance money. The game cost 50 dollars. Nina also has learned that there is a 10 percent sales tax. She receives 10 dollars a week as an allowance, and thinks she can save half of that. How many weeks will it take for Nina to be able to buy the new video game with her savings?
answer:Nina receives 10 dollars a week as an allowance, and she wants to save half of that, so she saves 10/2 = 5 dollars each week. The video game costs 50 dollars, and Nina is saving 5 dollars each week, so it will take her 50/5 = 10 weeks to save enough money to buy the game. However, there is a 10 percent sales tax on the game, so Nina will actually need to save 50 + (50 * 0.1) = 55 dollars in total. Since she is saving 5 dollars each week, it will take her 55/5 = 11 weeks to save enough money to buy the game with the sales tax included. 11 The answer is: 11
question:Uncle Lou was given four bags of peanuts to eat on his 2-hour plane flight. Each bag contains 30 peanuts. If he eats all of the peanuts during the flight, one at a time, consumed at equally spaced intervals, what is the length of time, in minutes, between eating each peanut?
answer:Uncle Lou has four bags of peanuts, each containing 30 peanuts. So he has a total of 4*30 = 120 peanuts. He has a 2-hour plane flight, which is equal to 2*60 = 120 minutes. If he eats all of the peanuts during the flight, and he has 120 peanuts, then he will eat one peanut every 120/120 = 1 minute. Therefore, the length of time between eating each peanut is 1 minute. 1 The answer is: 1
question:Ursula went to the store and bought butter, bread, a package of cheese, and tea. The bread was 2 times cheaper than the butter, while the price of the butter was 80% of the price of cheese. Tea was the most expensive and cost twice the price of a package of cheese. If the tea cost 10, how much did Ursula pay for her purchases?
answer:If the tea cost 10 and was twice the price of a package of cheese, then the package of cheese cost 10/2 = 5. If the price of the butter was 80% of the price of cheese, then the butter cost 5 * 80% = 4. If the bread was 2 times cheaper than the butter, then the bread cost 4/2 = 2. So, Ursula paid 2 + 4 + 5 + 10 = 21 for her purchases. 21 The answer is: 21
