Question: While at the lake, Cohen saw 300 fish-eater birds that had migrated into the area recently walking by the lake, eating the fish they had caught. The number of birds at the lake doubled on the second day and reduced by 200 on the third day. How many fish-eater birds did Cohen see in the three days? Answer: Since there were 300 fish - eater birds in the lake on the first day, the number doubled to 2 * 300 = 600 birds on the second day. The total number of fish that Cohen saw in the lake in the two days is 600 + 300 = 900. On the third day, the number of fish in the lake reduced to 600 - 200 = 400 birds. In the three days, Cohen saw 400 + 900 = 1300 fish - eater birds at the lake. The answer is 1300. [Question]Ross takes 17 breaths per minute by inhaling 5/9 liter of air to his lungs. What is the volume of air inhaled in 24 hours? [Answer]We have 60 minutes per hour. So, in 24 hours we have 60 * 24 = 1440 minutes. So, the volume of air Ross inhaled in 24 hours is: 17 breaths / minute * 5 / 9 L / breath * 1440 minutes = 122400 / 9 = 13600 liters. The volume of air inhaled is 13600 liters. The answer is 13600. Q: Judson, Camilo, and Kenny decided to contribute money to paint their house. Judson contributed 500, Kenny contributed 20% more money than Judson, and Camilo contributed 200 more than Kenny. How much was the cost of painting the house? A: If Judson paid 500, Kenny contributed 20 / 100 * 500 = 100 more than Judson. In total, Kenny contributed 500 + 100 = 600. Kenny and Judson contributed a total of 600 + 500 = 1100. If Camilo contributed 200 more than Kenny, then he contributed 600 + 200 = 800. The total amount of money the three contributed for the house painting is 1100 + 800 = 1900. The answer is 1900. Question: Jake delivers 234 newspapers a week. Miranda delivers twice as many newspapers a week. How many more newspapers does Miranda deliver than Jake in a month? Answer: Jake delivers 234 x 4 = 936 newspapers in a month. Miranda delivers 234 x 2 = 468 newspapers in a week. So she delivers 468 x 4 = 1872 newspapers in a month. Hence, Miranda delivers 1872 - 936 = 936 newspapers more than Jake in a month. The answer is 936. [Question]In eight years, Mr. Bernard will be 3 times as old as Luke is now. If Luke is 20, what is 10 years less than their average age? [Answer]If Luke is 20, he will be 20 + 8 = 28 years old in eight years. In eight years, Mr. Bernard will be 3 times as old as Luke is now, a total of 3 * 20 = 60 years old. Mr. Bernard is now 60 - 8 = 52 years old. The sum of their current ages is 52 + 20 = 72. Their average age is 72 / 2 = 36. 10 less than their average age is 36 - 10 = 26 years. The answer is 26. [Question]Bill is laying power cable for a new neighborhood. There are going to be 18 east-west streets that are 2 miles long and 10 north-south streets that are four miles long. It takes 5 miles of cable to electrify 1 mile of street. If cable costs 2000/mile, what is the total cost of cable for the neighborhood? [Answer]
answer:First, let's calculate the total miles of east-west streets: 18 streets * 2 miles = 36 miles Next, let's calculate the total miles of north-south streets: 10 streets * 4 miles = 40 miles The total miles of streets in the neighborhood is: 36 miles + 40 miles = 76 miles Now we need to calculate the total miles of cable needed: 76 miles * 5 miles of cable/mile = 380 miles of cable Finally, let's calculate the total cost of the cable: 380 miles * 2000/mile = 760,000 The total cost of cable for the neighborhood is 760,000. The answer is 760,000.
