Jackson is making pancakes with three ingredients: flour, milk and eggs. 20% of the bottles of milk are spoiled and the rest are fresh. 60% of the eggs are rotten. 1/4 of the cannisters of flour have weevils in them. If Jackson picks a bottle of milk, an egg and a canister of flour at random, what are the odds all three ingredients will be good?
null
24
First find the percentage of milk bottles that are fresh: 100% - 20% = 80% Then find the percentage of the eggs that aren't rotten: 100% - 60% = 40% Then find the fraction of the flour canisters that don't have weevils: 1 - 1/4 = 3/4 Divide the numerator of this fraction by the denominator and multiply by 100% to convert from a fraction to a percent: 3 / 4 * 100% = 75% Then multiply the probability that each ingredient is good to find the probability they all are: 75% * 80% * 40% = 24% #### 24

Bryan bought a total of 750 + 250 = <<750+250=1000>>1000 milliliters of milk from the two smaller bottles. Since 1 liter is equal to 1000 milliliters, then 1000 milliliters is equal to 1000/1000 = <<1000/1000=1>>1 liter. Therefore, Bryan bought a total of 2 + 1 = <<2+1=3>>3 liters of milk. #### 3

Think about the magnetic force between the magnets in each pair. Which of the following statements is true?
[ "The magnitude of the magnetic force is the same in both pairs.", "The magnitude of the magnetic force is greater in Pair 1.", "The magnitude of the magnetic force is greater in Pair 2." ]
A
The magnets in Pair 1 attract. The magnets in Pair 2 repel. But whether the magnets attract or repel affects only the direction of the magnetic force. It does not affect the magnitude of the magnetic force. Both magnet sizes and distance affect the magnitude of the magnetic force. The sizes of the magnets in Pair 1 are the same as in Pair 2. The distance between the magnets is also the same. So, the magnitude of the magnetic force is the same in both pairs.

Jason's dog has a tail that's half the length of its body, and a head that's 1/6 the length of its body. If the dog is 30 inches long overall, how long is its tail?
null
9
If b is the length of the body, h is the length of the head, and t is the length of the tail, we know that b + h + t = 30, h = b/6 and t = b/2. We can substitute the second two equations into the first equation to get b + b/6 + b/2 = 30 Now multiply both sides of this equation by 6: 6b + b + 3b = 180 Now combine like terms: 10b = 180 Now divide both sides by 10: b = 180. The dog's body is 18 inches long. Now divide that length by 2 to find the length of its tail: 18 inches / 2 = <<18/2=9>>9 inches #### 9

What do these two changes have in common? shaking up salad dressing water boiling on a stove
[ "Both are caused by cooling.", "Both are only physical changes.", "Both are caused by heating.", "Both are chemical changes." ]
B
Step 1: Think about each change. Shaking up salad dressing is a physical change. The different parts mix together, but they are still made of the same type of matter. Water boiling on the stove is a change of state. So, it is a physical change. The liquid changes into a gas, but a different type of matter is not formed. Step 2: Look at each answer choice. Both are only physical changes. Both changes are physical changes. No new matter is created. Both are chemical changes. Both changes are physical changes. They are not chemical changes. Both are caused by heating. Water boiling is caused by heating. But shaking up salad dressing is not. Both are caused by cooling. Neither change is caused by cooling.

A quantity surveyor is figuring the construction costs for a couple that wishes to build a house. The costs are as follows: land costs $50 per square meter, bricks cost $100 per 1000 bricks and roof tiles cost $10 per roof tile. If the house they wish to build requires 2000 square meters, 10000 bricks, and 500 roof tiles, how much construction costs are required for this project?
null

The cost required for buying land is $50/sq m * 2000 sq m = $<<50*2000=100000>>100000. The cost required for buying bricks is $100/1000 bricks * 10000 bricks = $<<100/1000*10000=1000>>1000. The cost required for buying roof tiles is $10/tile * 500 tiles = $<<10*500=5000>>5000. The total construction cost is $100000 + $1000 + $5000 = $<<100000+1000+5000=106000>>106000. #### 106000

A squirrel had stashed 210 acorns to last him the three winter months. It divided the pile into thirds, one for each month, and then took some from each third, leaving 60 acorns for each winter month. The squirrel combined the ones it took to eat in the first cold month of spring before plants were in bloom again. How many acorns does the squirrel have to eat at the beginning of spring?
null

The squirrel split the 210 acorns into thirds, so it had 3 piles of 210 / 3 = <<210/3=70>>70 acorns. It took 70 - 60 = <<70-60=10>>10 from each pile. The squirrel will have 3 * 10 = <<3*10=30>>30 acorns to eat at the beginning of spring. #### 30

If Kenneth bought 700oz of fabric at $40 per oz, he spent a total of 700*40 = $<<700*40=28000>>28000 Nicholas bought six times as much fabric as Kenneth, meaning Nicholas bought 6*700 = <<6*700=4200>>4200oz of fabric. If an oz of fabric is sold at $40, Nicholas paid 4200*$40 =$<<4200*40=168000>>168000 for the 4200oz of fabric.

Kate has to fill 52 balloons for the party. Each balloon holds 5 gallons of air. For the first 10 minutes, she can fill the balloons at a rate of 8 gallons of air per minute. For the next five minutes, she fills them at half that rate. After that, she fills the rest of the balloons at a rate of 2 gallons of air per minute. How many minutes will it take her to fill all of the balloons?
null

She needs to fill a total of 52 * 5 = <<52*5=260>>260 gallons of air. In the first ten minutes, she fills 8 * 10 = <<8*10=80>>80 gallons of air. For the next five minutes, she fills 8 / 2 * 5 = <<8/2*5=20>>20 gallons of air. That leaves her with 260 - 80 - 20 = <<260-80-20=160>>160 gallons of air to fill. It will take her 160 / 2 = <<160/2=80>>80 more minutes to fill the rest of the balloons. The total time to fill all of the balloons is 10 + 5 + 80 = <<10+5+80=95>>95 minutes. #### 95
