The box contains 6 blue balls, 4 red balls, 3 times as many green balls as blue ones and twice as many yellow ones as red ones. 
How many balls are in the box Clive opens?
36
There are 3 times as many green balls as blue balls so green balls = blue balls * 3. Green balls = 6 blue balls * 3 = <<6*3=18>>18 green balls There are 2 times as many yellow balls as red ones so yellow balls = red balls * 2. Yellow balls = 4 red balls * 2 = <<4*2=8>>8 yellow balls The total number of all the balls is 6 blue + 4 red + 18 green + 8 yellow: 6+4+18+8 = <<6+4+18+8=36>>36 balls #### 36

For the funfair, the school organizers ordered 30 rolls of tickets. Each roll of tickets has 100 tickets. The 4th graders bought 30% of the tickets while the 5th graders bought 50% of the remaining tickets. Then the 6th graders bought a total of 100 tickets. How many tickets were left unsold?
950
There were a total of 30 x 100 = <<30*100=3000>>3000 tickets ordered by the school organizers. The 4th graders bought 3000 x 30/100 = <<3000*30/100=900>>900 tickets. So, there were 3000 - 900 = <<3000-900=2100>>2100 tickets left for the other two grade levels. The 5th graders bought 2100 x 50/100 = <<2100*50/100=1050>>1050 tickets. So, 2100 - 1050 = <<2100-1050=1050>>1050 tickets were left then. Since 100 tickets were bought by the 6th graders, therefore 1050 - 100 = <<950=950>>950 tickets were left unsold. #### 950

Tony can run a mile twice as fast as Tina, who with a time of 6 minutes is one-third as fast a runner as Tom. What are all three of their mile times when added together?
11
Since someone running twice as fast a mile as another person would mean they complete the mile in half as much time, this means Tony would run a mile in 6/2= <<6/2=3>>3 minutes since Tina's time was 6 minutes. Since Tom is three times as fast as Tina, for the same reasons as above this means his time is 6/3= <<6/3=2>>2 minutes. Altogether then, the total time for all three is then 6+3+2= <<6+3+2=11>>11 minutes. #### 11

Janice needs to go to watch a movie in 2 hours. before she could leave, she needs to finish her homework which takes 30 minutes; clean her room which takes half as long as her homework; walk the dog which takes 5 minutes more than making homework; take out the trash which takes 1/6 of the time it takes her to do the homework. How many more minutes do Janice have left before the movie starts?
35
Janice takes 30/2 = <<30/2=15>>15 minutes to clean her room. It takes 30 + 5 = <<30+5=35>>35 minutes for her to walk the dog. It takes her 30 x 1/6 = <<30*1/6=5>>5 minutes to take out the trash. So, it will take 30 + 15 + 35 + 5 = <<30+15+35+5=85>>85 minutes to do all those chores. Since there are 60 minutes in 1 hour, then 2 hours is 2 x 60 = <<2*60=120>>120 minutes. Thus, Janice still has 120 - 85 = <<120-85=35>>35 minutes left before the movie starts. #### 35

Kevin's fish tank was leaking slowly at a rate of 1.5 ounces per hour. He planned to go to the fish tank store later that day to get a new tank, but it may be as long as 12 hours before he can return home with the new tank. Therefore, to collect the leaking fluid over that time, he placed a bucket underneath the tank that could hold twice the amount of fluid that would leak over 12 hours. What size bucket, in ounces, did he use?
36
Over 12 hours, a leak of 1.5 ounces per hour for 12 hours would generate 1.5*12=<<1.5*12=18>>18 ounces. A bucket that can hold twice the volume leaked is 18*2=<<18*2=36>>36 ounces. #### 36

Allison, a YouTuber, uploads 10 one-hour videos of food reviews each day to her channel. She uploaded videos halfway through June, at that pace, and then doubled the number of video hours she uploaded on the remaining days. What's the total number of video hours she has uploaded at the end of the month?
450
Since June has 30 days, halfway is 1/2*30 = <<1/2*30=15>>15 The total number of video hours halfway through June is 10*15 = <<10*15=150>>150 When she doubled the number of video hours, the total per day became 10*2 = <<10*2=20>>20 The total number of video hours for the remaining days is 15*20 = <<15*20=300>>300 The total number of video hours for the whole month is 300+150 = <<300+150=450>>450 #### 450

The number of students in Kylie's class is 50. In a particular test, ten students scored 90 marks, 15 scored ten marks fewer than the first ten students, and the rest scored 60 marks each. What are the average marks for the whole class?
72
The total marks for the first ten students are 90 * 10 = <<90*10=900>>900 marks The 15 students who scored ten marks fewer than the first ten had 90 - 10 = 80 marks each. The total marks for the following 15 students are 15 * 80 = <<15*80=1200>>1200 marks. The total number of students who scored above sixty is 10 + 15 = <<10+15=25>>25. If 50 students were present in the class, those who scored sixty are 50 - 25 = <<50-25=25>>25. If 25 students scored 60, then their total marks are 60 * 25 = <<60*25=1500>>1500 marks. The whole class scored a total of 1500 + 1200 + 900 = <<1500+1200+900=3600>>3600 marks. The average for the class is 3600 / 50 = <<3600/50=72>>72 marks. #### 72

Ben will receive a bonus of $1496. He chooses to allocate this amount as follows: 1/22 for the kitchen, 1/4 for holidays and 1/8 for Christmas gifts for his 3 children. How much money will he still have left after these expenses?
867
Ben's spending for the kitchen is $1496 x 1/22 = $<<1496*1/22=68>>68. Ben's spending for holidays is $1496 x 1/4 = $<<1496*1/4=374>>374. Ben's spending for children's gifts is $1496 x 1/8 = $<<1496*1/8=187>>187. The total amount spent is $68 + $374 + $187 = $<<68+374+187=629>>629. So, Ben still has $1496 - $629 = $<<1496-629=867>>867 left. #### 867

Frank and his friends Betty and Bill went to their farm and picked oranges to eat. Betty picked 15 oranges and Bill picked 12 oranges. Frank picked three times the number that Betty and Bill picked combined. Frank then planted 2 seeds from each of his oranges into the ground and waited 20 years for each seed to turn into a beautiful orange tree. If each orange tree contains 5 oranges for Frank's son Philip to pick, how many oranges are there for Philip to pick in total?
810
Together, Betty and Bill picked 15 + 12 = <<15+12=27>>27 oranges. Frank picked 3 * 27 = <<3*27=81>>81 oranges. Frank planted 2 * 81 = <<2*81=162>>162 seeds in total, so there are 162 orange trees 20 years later. Philip can then pick 162 * 5 = <<162*5=810>>810 oranges. #### 810

Sam went for a run in the morning. In the afternoon, he went grocery shopping and walked twice the distance through the store as he had run that morning. That evening, he went on a bike ride with his family and biked for 12 miles. In all, he went 18 miles that day. How many miles was Sam’s morning run?
2
Let X be the distance Sam ran. His walk through the store was twice the distance of his run, so his walk was 2X. He biked for 12 miles and went 18 miles in all, so he walked and ran 18 - 12 = <<18-12=6>>6 miles. Thus, his walk and run together were X + 2X = 3X = <<6=6>>6 miles. Thus, he ran X = 6 / 3 = <<6/3=2>>2 miles. #### 2

The math questions in a contest are divided into three rounds: easy, average, and hard. There are corresponding points given for each round. That is 2, 3, and 5 points for every correct answer in the easy, average, and hard rounds, respectively. Suppose Kim got 6 correct answers in the easy; 2 correct answers in the average; and 4 correct answers in the difficult round, what are her total points in the contest?

Kim got 6 points/round x 2 round = <<6*2=12>>12 points in the easy round. She got 2 points/round x 3 rounds = <<2*3=6>>6 points in the average round. She got 4 points/round x 5 rounds = <<4*5=20>>20 points in the difficult round. So her total points is 12 points + 6 points + 20 points = <<12+6+20=38>>38 points. #### 38
