A man is purchasing a pair of sneakers at a club store where he receives a membership discount of 10% off any purchase. In addition to the membership discount, the man also has a coupon for $10 off any pair of sneakers. If the man wants to purchase a $120 pair of sneakers and the membership discount must be applied a...
The coupon is applied first, which reduces the cost of the sneakers to 120 - 10 = $<<120-10=110>>110. Next, the 10% discount leads to a reduction in price of 110*0.1 = $<<110*0.1=11>>11. Therefore, the final price the man must pay is 110 - 11 = $<<110-11=99>>99. #### 99
Sandra had 2 different bags of candy. Each of her bags had 6 pieces of candy left. Her brother, Roger, also had 2 bags of candy. One of his bags of candy had 11 pieces left and the other had 3 pieces left. How much more candy did Roger have?
Sandra had 2 bags that each contained 6 pieces of candy so 2*6 = <<2*6=12>>12 pieces Roger had 11 pieces of candy in one bag and 3 pieces in the other so 11+3 = <<11+3=14>>14 pieces Roger had 14 pieces and Sandra had 12 pieces so Roger has 14-12 = <<14-12=2>>2 more pieces of candy #### 2

Susan had a sum of money. She spent 1/5 of it in September, 1/4 of it in October, and $120 in November. After spending these amounts of money, she still had $540 left. How much money did she have at first?
Let X be the amount Susan had originally. Susan spent 1/5*X in September, 1/4*X in October, and $120 in November. Susan has X - 1/5*X - 1/4*X - $120 = $540 left. Combining like terms, we get 11/20*X - $120 = $540 Adding $120 to both sides, we get 11/20*X = $660. Dividing both sides by 11/20 we get X = $1200. #### 1200

Barbie enjoys buying jewelry. One day, she bought 12 pairs of earrings, and gave half of them to Alissa, making Alissa's total number of collections to be triple the number of earrings she was given. How many earrings does Alissa have now?
If 1 pair of earrings equals 2 earrings, then Barbie bought 12*2=<<12*2=24>>24 earrings. Half of 24 earrings is 24/2=<<24/2=12>>12 earrings If receiving 12 earrings tripled Alissa's collection, then she now has 12*3=<<12*3=36>>36 earrings. #### 36

The rim of a standard basketball hoop is 10 feet above the ground. Additionally, most experts will say that a player must be able to reach at least 6 inches above the rim to dunk a basketball. Suppose a basketball player is 6 feet tall and can reach 22 inches above their head using the wingspan of their arms. How hi...
In inches, the height of the rim is 10*12 = <<10*12=120>>120 inches. Thus, the height that the player needs to be able to reach is 120 + 6 = <<120+6=126>>126 inches. Without jumping, the player can reach their height plus an additional 22 inches, or a total of 6*12 + 22 = <<6*12+22=94>>94 inches. Therefore, the player ...
A family just bought a newborn puppy that must eat a special type of dog food until it is 1 year old. The puppy needs to eat 2 ounces of this special dog food per day during the first 60 days of its life. After that, it needs to eat 4 ounces per day of the special food until it is old enough to eat regular dog food. ...
The puppy will consume 60*2 = <<60*2=120>>120 ounces of the special dog food in the first 60 days. This leaves 365 - 60 = 305 days where the puppy will consume 4 ounces of food per day, or 305*4 = 1220 ounces of the special food. Thus, the puppy requires a total of 120 + 1220 = <<120+1220=1340>>1340 ounces of food befo...
