There are 50 oysters on the rocks at La Push Park and 72 crabs by the beach. Eric, who loves walking by the beach, makes a note of this and goes home. The next day, he realizes only half the number of Oysters were on the rocks, and only 2/3 the number of crabs as the previous day are on the beach. How many oysters and crabs did he count in total in the two days?
null

The first day he saw 50 oysters + 72 crabs = <<50+72=122>>122 animals. On the second day, he saw 1/2 * 50 oysters = <<1/2*50=25>>25 oysters. The number of crabs by the beach on the second day was 2/3 * 72 crabs = <<2/3*72=48>>48 He saw 48 crabs + 25 oysters = <<48+25=73>>73 animals on the second day. The total for the two days is 73 animals + 122 animals = <<73+122=195>>195 animals #### 195

Which solution has a higher concentration of green particles?
[ "neither; their concentrations are the same", "Solution A", "Solution B" ]
C
In Solution A and Solution B, the green particles represent the solute. To figure out which solution has a higher concentration of green particles, look at both the number of green particles and the volume of the solvent in each container. Use the concentration formula to find the number of green particles per milliliter. Solution B has more green particles per milliliter. So, Solution B has a higher concentration of green particles.

What do these two changes have in common? molding clay into the shape of a pot a rock heating up in a campfire
[ "Both are caused by cooling.", "Both are caused by heating.", "Both are chemical changes.", "Both are only physical changes." ]
D
Step 1: Think about each change. Molding clay into the shape of a pot is a physical change. The clay gets a different shape. But it is made of the same type of matter. A rock heating up in a campfire is a physical change. The temperature of the rock goes up, but the rock is still made of the same type of matter. 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. A rock heating up in a campfire is caused by heating. But molding clay is not. Both are caused by cooling. Neither change is caused by cooling.

One hour contains 60 minutes so 2 hours contain 60*2 = <<2*60=120>>120 minutes Alpha Epsilon's running time is 30 minutes less than that of Millennium (which runs for 120 minutes) hence 120-30 = <<120-30=90>>90 minutes Beast of War: Armoured Command runs for 10 minutes more than Alpha Epsilon hence 90+10 = <<10+90=100>>100 minutes #### 100

We have 12 km / 3 km = <<12/3=4>>4. So, the distance covered in 12 km is 4 times greater than 3 km. The time taken will also be 4 times greater. So, 2 hours x 4 = <<2*4=8>>8 hours. We convert the time to minutes: 8 hours * 60 minutes/hour = <<8*60=480>>480 minutes. #### 480

A school canteen sells a sandwich at $2, a hamburger at $2, one stick of hotdog at $1, and a can of fruit juice at $2 each can. Selene buys three sandwiches and a can of fruit juice. Tanya buys two hamburgers and two cans of fruit juice. How much do Selene and Tanya spend together?

Three sandwiches cost 3 x $2 = $<<3*2=6>>6. So, Selene spends $6 + $2 = $<<6+2=8>>8. Two hamburgers cost 2 x $2 = $<<2*2=4>>4. Two cans of fruit juice cost 2 x $2 = $<<2*2=4>>4. Thus, Tanyah spends $4 +$4 = $<<4+4=8>>8. Therefore, Selene and Tanya spend $8 + $8 = $<<8+8=16>>16. #### 16

Erika and her 3 siblings are drawing with chalk outside. Another 3 friends join them and ask if they can help with the drawing. Erika loses 2 pieces of chalk as they are counting and the group realizes there isn't enough chalk for everyone. Erika’s mom brings out another 12 pieces of chalk for them to share and there is now enough chalk for everyone to have 3 pieces each. How many pieces of chalk did Erika and her siblings originally have?
null
11
Altogether, there are 1 Erika + 3 siblings + 3 friends = <<1+3+3=7>>7 people drawing outside. The group has a total of 7 people * 3 pieces of chalk each = <<7*3=21>>21 pieces of chalk altogether. Before Erika’s mom helped, they had 21 total pieces of chalk - 12 pieces of chalk Erika’s mom brought = <<21-12=9>>9 pieces of chalk. Then adding the chalk that Erika lost shows that the group originally had 9 pieces of chalk + 2 lost pieces of chalk = <<9+2=11>>11 pieces of chalk. #### 11

After shearing her 200 sheep, Azalea paid the shearer who had come to help her with the work $2000 for his job. Each of the sheared sheep produced 10 pounds of wool. If Ms. Azalea sold a pound of wool at $20, how much profit did she make from the produce of her sheep farm?

Since there were 200 sheep, the amount of wool Azalea got after the shearing of the sheep is 200*10 = <<200*10=2000>>2000 pounds of wool. If she sold one pound of wool at $20, the total amount of money she made from the sheep farm is 2000*$20 = $<<2000*20=40000>>40000 Her profit, which is $2000 less the amount of money she paid to the shearer, is $40000-$2000 = 38000 #### 38000

Half the number of pages of Selena is 400/2 = <<400/2=200>>200. Therefore, Harry's book has 200 - 20 = <<200-20=180>>180 pages. #### 180

Is the following trait inherited or acquired? Jane has a scar on her left hand.
[ "inherited", "acquired" ]
B
Children do not inherit their parent's scars. Instead, scars are caused by the environment. People can get scars after they get hurt. So, having a scar is an acquired trait.

What do these two changes have in common? acid rain weathering a marble statue milk going sour
[ "Both are caused by heating.", "Both are chemical changes.", "Both are only physical changes.", "Both are caused by cooling." ]
B
Step 1: Think about each change. Acid rain weathering a marble statue is a chemical change. The acid rain reacts with the outside of the statue and breaks it down into a different type of matter. This new matter is then washed away by the rain. Acid rain is a type of pollution. It forms when smoke from automobiles and factories mixes with water in clouds. Acid rain is a type of pollution. It forms when automobiles and factories release smoke containing sulfur or nitrogen. Some of these chemicals react with water in the atmosphere. The reaction forms droplets of water that can fall back to the ground as acid rain. Milk going sour is a chemical change. The type of matter in the milk slowly changes. The new matter that is formed gives the milk its sour taste. Step 2: Look at each answer choice. Both are only physical changes. Both changes are chemical changes. They are not physical changes. Both are chemical changes. Both changes are chemical changes. The type of matter before and after each change is different. Both are caused by heating. Neither change is caused by heating. Both are caused by cooling. Neither change is caused by cooling.

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 greater in Pair 2.", "The magnitude of the magnetic force is the same in both pairs.", "The magnitude of the magnetic force is greater in Pair 1." ]
C
The magnets in Pair 2 attract. The magnets in Pair 1 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. Distance affects the magnitude of the magnetic force. When there is a smaller distance between magnets, the magnitude of the magnetic force between them is greater. There is a smaller distance between the magnets in Pair 1 than in Pair 2. So, the magnitude of the magnetic force is greater in Pair 1 than in Pair 2.

First find the cost per member of the hardcover books: $30/book * 6 books = $<<30*6=180>>180. Then find the cost per member of the paperback books: $12/book * 6 books = $<<12*6=72>>72. Then find the total cost per member: $180 + $72 + $150 = $<<180+72+150=402>>402/member. Now find the total amount of money by multiplying the cost per member by the number of members: $402/member * 6 members = $<<402*6=2412>>2412. #### 2412
