question:Jamie is an education app reviewer and a parent who wants to evaluate five different educational apps for their child's learning. To make a fair assessment, Jamie decides to spend 12 minutes each day on each app for a week. How many total minutes will Jamie spend reviewing all the apps by the end of the week?
answer:To solve the problem, we need to determine the total amount of time Jamie spends reviewing all the educational apps over the course of one week. We can break this down into a series of calculations:1. Determine the daily time spent on a single app: Jamie spends 12 minutes per day on each app.2. Calculate the total time spent per day on all apps: Since there are 5 apps, Jamie spends 12 minutes per app per day. Therefore, the total time spent per day reviewing all apps is: [ 12 text{ minutes/app} times 5 text{ apps} = 60 text{ minutes per day} ]3. Calculate the total time spent over a week: Jamie reviews the apps every day for a week (7 days). So, the total time spent over the week is: [ 60 text{ minutes/day} times 7 text{ days} = 420 text{ minutes} ]Thus, by the end of the week, Jamie will have spent a total of 420 minutes reviewing all the apps.# 420
question:Jamie is a professional basketball player who loves to practice with their younger sibling, Alex. During a practice session, Jamie sets up a series of shots for Alex, positioning them to make the most of the angles on the court. Jamie sets up 5 different shooting spots around the court, and at each spot, Alex attempts 4 shots. Alex successfully makes 3 out of 4 shots at each spot. How many total shots did Alex make during the practice session?
answer:To solve the problem, we need to determine how many total successful shots Alex made during the practice session.Step 1: Determine the number of shots attempted at each spot.Alex attempts 4 shots at each shooting spot. Step 2: Determine the number of spots.There are 5 different shooting spots around the court.Step 3: Calculate the total number of shots attempted.The total number of shots attempted is the number of shots per spot multiplied by the number of spots. Since Alex attempts 4 shots at each of the 5 spots, the total number of shots attempted is:[ 4 , text{shots/spot} times 5 , text{spots} = 20 , text{shots} ]Step 4: Calculate the number of successful shots at each spot.Alex makes 3 out of 4 shots successfully at each spot.Step 5: Calculate the total number of successful shots.The total number of successful shots is the number of successful shots per spot multiplied by the number of spots. Since Alex makes 3 successful shots at each of the 5 spots, the total number of successful shots is:[ 3 , text{successful shots/spot} times 5 , text{spots} = 15 , text{successful shots} ]Therefore, the total number of shots Alex made during the practice session is 15.# 15
question:Lucy is a casual fan of the TV show Lucifer. Every week, she watches 3 episodes of the show. Each episode lasts 45 minutes. After watching the episodes, Lucy likes to spend twice as much time browsing fan forums to discuss what she watched. If she has already watched 4 weeks' worth of episodes, how many total minutes has Lucy spent watching the show and browsing the forums?
answer:To solve this problem, we need to calculate the total time Lucy spends each week on watching episodes and browsing fan forums, and then extrapolate that over the 4 weeks she has already watched.Step 1: Calculate the time spent watching episodes per week.- Lucy watches 3 episodes each week.- Each episode lasts 45 minutes.The total time spent watching episodes each week is:[3 text{ episodes/week} times 45 text{ minutes/episode} = 135 text{ minutes/week}]Step 2: Calculate the time spent browsing fan forums per week.- Lucy spends twice as much time browsing forums as she does watching episodes.The time spent browsing forums each week is:[2 times 135 text{ minutes/week} = 270 text{ minutes/week}]Step 3: Calculate the total time spent per week on both activities.The total time spent per week on both watching and browsing is:[135 text{ minutes/week} + 270 text{ minutes/week} = 405 text{ minutes/week}]Step 4: Calculate the total time spent over 4 weeks.Lucy has already watched 4 weeks' worth of episodes, so the total time spent over 4 weeks is:[4 times 405 text{ minutes/week} = 1620 text{ minutes}]# 1620
question:Kwame is a progressive millennial Ghanaian student who loves to explore local culture and technology. He decides to visit a traditional Ghanaian market to buy some ingredients for a special dish he wants to cook while documenting the experience for his tech blog. He buys 3 plantains at 2 cedis each and a tuber of yam for 5 cedis. He also purchases 2 bottles of palm oil, each costing 7 cedis, and some spices for 4 cedis. How much does Kwame spend in total at the market?
answer:To find out how much Kwame spends in total at the market, we need to calculate the cost of each item he buys and then sum them up.1. Cost of Plantains: - Kwame buys 3 plantains at 2 cedis each. - Total cost for plantains = 3 plantains × 2 cedis/plantain = 6 cedis.2. Cost of Yam: - He buys 1 tuber of yam for 5 cedis. - Total cost for yam = 5 cedis.3. Cost of Palm Oil: - Kwame buys 2 bottles of palm oil at 7 cedis each. - Total cost for palm oil = 2 bottles × 7 cedis/bottle = 14 cedis.4. Cost of Spices: - He buys spices for 4 cedis. - Total cost for spices = 4 cedis.5. Total Cost: - Add up all the costs: - Total cost = Cost of plantains + Cost of yam + Cost of palm oil + Cost of spices - Total cost = 6 cedis + 5 cedis + 14 cedis + 4 cedis = 29 cedis.Kwame spends a total of 29 cedis at the market.# 29
question:Alex is a specialist in analyzing and interpreting photographic evidence to identify key elements and patterns. For a new project, Alex is studying a series of 8 photographs that each contain a mix of different elements. In each photograph, there are 5 trees, 3 benches, and 4 fountains. Alex notices that for each tree, there are 2 birds perched on its branches.Alex needs to calculate the total number of birds present in all 8 photographs combined. Can you help Alex find out how many birds are there in total across all the photographs?
answer:To solve the problem, we need to determine the total number of birds present in all 8 photographs. We will do this by following these steps:1. Determine the number of birds per tree in one photograph: - It is given that each tree has 2 birds perched on its branches.2. Calculate the total number of birds in one photograph: - Each photograph contains 5 trees. - Since each tree has 2 birds, the total number of birds per photograph is calculated as follows: [ 5 text{ trees} times 2 text{ birds per tree} = 10 text{ birds per photograph} ]3. Calculate the total number of birds across all 8 photographs: - There are 8 photographs in total. - We multiply the number of birds per photograph by the number of photographs to find the total number of birds: [ 10 text{ birds per photograph} times 8 text{ photographs} = 80 text{ birds in total} ]Now that we have completed the calculations, we can provide the final answer.# 80
question:Alex, a car audio enthusiast from Brazil, loves sharing his experiences with Kicker products, especially their subwoofers and amplifiers. He recently recommended a setup that includes 2 Kicker subwoofers and an amplifier to his online community. Each Kicker subwoofer costs 150, and the amplifier costs 120. If Alex buys 3 such recommended setups for his car audio shop, how much will he spend in total?
answer:To solve the problem, we need to determine the total cost of one recommended setup and then calculate the cost for three such setups.Step 1: Calculate the cost of one setup.- Each Kicker subwoofer costs 150.- The setup includes 2 Kicker subwoofers.- Therefore, the cost for the subwoofers in one setup is: [ 2 times 150 = 300 ]- The amplifier costs 120.- Thus, the total cost for one setup (including subwoofers and amplifier) is: [ 300 + 120 = 420 ]Step 2: Calculate the cost for 3 setups.- Since Alex wants to buy 3 setups, we multiply the cost of one setup by 3: [ 3 times 420 = 1260 ]Therefore, the total amount Alex will spend for 3 setups is 1260.# 1260
