question:f Lauryn owns a computer company and there are a total of 180 people working for him, with 20 fewer men than women, how many men does he employ in his company?
answer:Let's assume there are M men working for Lauryn's company. Since there are 20 fewer men than women, the number of women working for the company is M + 20. The total number of people working for the company is M + (M + 20) = 180. Combining like terms, we get 2M + 20 = 180. Subtracting 20 from both sides, we get 2M = 160. Dividing both sides by 2, we get M = 80. Therefore, Lauryn employs 80 men in his company. 80 The answer is: 80
question:f Blake needs 4 ounces of milk and 12 ounces of ice cream for each milkshake and he has 72 ounces of milk and 192 ounces of ice cream, how much milk will be remaining after he finishes making the milkshakes for his family?
answer:Blake needs 4 ounces of milk for each milkshake and he has 72 ounces of milk, so he can make 72/4 = 18 milkshakes. For each milkshake, he also needs 12 ounces of ice cream, and he has 192 ounces of ice cream, so he can make 192/12 = 16 milkshakes. Since he can only make 16 milkshakes with the available amount of ice cream, he will only be able to make 16 milkshakes with the available amount of milk. For 16 milkshakes, he will need 16 x 4 = 64 ounces of milk. Therefore, he will have 72 - 64 = 8 ounces of milk remaining after he finishes making the milkshakes for his family. 8 The answer is: 8
question:f Lucy, who works in a pet shop, can clean 2 aquariums in 3 hours, how many aquariums can she clean if she works for a total of 24 hours this week?
answer:If Lucy can clean 2 aquariums in 3 hours, then she can clean 1 aquarium in 3/2 = 1.5 hours. If she works for a total of 24 hours, then she can clean 24/1.5 = 16 aquariums. 16 The answer is: 16
question:Parker is x inches shorter than Daisy. Daisy is 8 inches taller than Reese. If Reese is 60 inches tall, The average height for the three of them is 64. What is the value of unknown variable x?
answer:To solve this problem, we need to determine the value of x, which represents the height difference between Parker and Daisy in inches. Let's break down the information given: Height of Reese: 60 inches Height of Daisy: Height of Reese + 8 inches Height of Parker: Height of Daisy - x inches Average height of the three: 64 inches We can set up the equation as follows: (Height of Reese + Height of Daisy + Height of Parker) / 3 = Average height of the three (60 + (60 + 8) + (60 + 8 - x)) / 3 = 64 Let's simplify and solve for x: (60 + 68 + (68 - x)) / 3 = 64 (196 - x) / 3 = 64 To isolate x, we multiply both sides of the equation by 3: 3 * ((196 - x) / 3) = 3 * 64 196 - x = 192 To isolate x, we subtract 196 from both sides of the equation: 196 - x - 196 = 192 - 196 -x = -4 Finally, we multiply both sides of the equation by -1 to solve for x: x = 4 The value of x is 4. 4 The answer is: 4
