Linda was gathering eggs from her chicken coops. When she was done, she had three times as many white eggs as brown eggs. On her way back to the house, she stumbled, dropping her egg basket. Upon inspecting the damage, she found that all 5 of the brown eggs survived, but now she only had a dozen eggs left. How many eggs did Linda break?
null

Linda has 12 eggs left, 5 of which are brown, so 12 - 5 = <<12-5=7>>7 are white. Linda originally had 3 times as many white eggs as brown eggs, or 3 * 5 = <<3*5=15>>15 white eggs. So Linda broke 15 - 7 = <<15-7=8>>8 white eggs. #### 8

Megan is making food for a party. She has to spend 20 minutes preparing one dish in the oven. Each dish can feed 5 people. She spends 2 hours preparing as many of these dishes as she can for the party. How many people can she feed with these dishes?
null
30
First, we need to determine the total amount of minutes available for cooking. We do this by performing 2*60=<<2*60=120>>120, as there are 60 minutes in an hour. Now that we know we have 120 minutes, we then divide the preparation time into the total amount of time by performing 120/20= <<120/20=6>>6 dishes capable of being made. Since each dish can feed 5 people, we find the total number of people fed by performing 5*6=<<5*6=30>>30 people. #### 30

To decide if an animal is part of a group, look at the traits of the group. Placental mammals have the following traits: They give birth to live offspring. They have fur or hair. Compare each animal's traits to the group's traits. Select the animal with traits similar to the group's traits. A Japanese tree frog has the following traits: It spends part of its life in water and part on land. It has moist skin. It makes eggs with no shells. A Japanese tree frog does not have all of the traits of a placental mammal. A Japanese tree frog is an amphibian. An orangutan has the following traits: It gives birth to live offspring. An orangutan has the traits of a placental mammal. An orangutan is a placental mammal.

Complete the statement. Trichlorofluoromethane is ().
[ "a compound", "an elementary substance" ]
A
You can tell whether trichlorofluoromethane is an elementary substance or a compound by counting the number of atomic symbols in its chemical formula. An atomic symbol consists of either one capital letter or a capital letter followed by one or two lowercase letters. The chemical formula for trichlorofluoromethane, CCl3 F, contains three atomic symbols: C for carbon, Cl for chlorine, and F for fluorine. So, the formula tells you that trichlorofluoromethane is composed of three chemical elements bonded together. Since trichlorofluoromethane is composed of multiple chemical elements bonded together, trichlorofluoromethane is a compound.

Big Dig Mining Company mines three different types of ore: copper, iron, and nickel. Across all their mines, 10% of their output is nickel, 60% is iron, and the rest is copper. They mine 720 tons of nickel a day. How many tons of copper does Big Dig Mining Company mine daily?
null
360
Let R be the total ore output of the company. Of Big Dig’s output, 100 - 10 - 60 = <<100-10-60=30>>30% is nickel. Since 720 is 60% of 100% of their output, 720 / R = 60 / 100. Thus, Big Dig mines R = 100 * 720 / 60 = <<100*720/60=1200>>1200 tons of ore daily. Therefore, Big Dig mines 1200 * 30 / 100 = <<1200*30/100=360>>360 tons of copper daily. #### 360

What type of rock is gneiss?
[ "metamorphic", "sedimentary", "igneous" ]
A
Gneiss is a metamorphic rock. Like other metamorphic rocks, it forms when a rock is changed by high temperature and pressure. Heat and pressure can change the type and arrangement of minerals in a rock. This change forms a new rock with different properties. Gneiss can form when sedimentary, igneous, or other metamorphic rocks are changed by heat and pressure. Granite and schist are two rocks that can change into gneiss.

Which of the following organisms is the secondary consumer in this food web?
[ "zooplankton", "phytoplankton", "kelp", "plainfin midshipman" ]
D
Secondary consumers eat primary consumers, and primary consumers eat producers. So, in a food web, secondary consumers have arrows pointing to them from primary consumers. Primary consumers have arrows pointing to them from producers. The zooplankton has an arrow pointing to it from the phytoplankton. The phytoplankton is not a primary consumer. So, the zooplankton is not a secondary consumer. The kelp does not have any arrows pointing to it. So, the kelp is not a secondary consumer. The kelp bass has arrows pointing to it from the zooplankton and the plainfin midshipman. The zooplankton and the plainfin midshipman are primary consumers, so the kelp bass is a secondary consumer. The phytoplankton does not have any arrows pointing to it. So, the phytoplankton is not a secondary consumer. The plainfin midshipman has an arrow pointing to it from the zooplankton. The zooplankton is a primary consumer, so the plainfin midshipman is a secondary consumer.

Which animal's skin is better adapted as a warning sign to ward off predators?
[ "peppered moth", "blue poison dart frog" ]
B
Look at the picture of the flamboyant cuttlefish. The flamboyant cuttlefish has a poisonous body with brightly colored skin. Its skin is adapted to ward off predators. The bright colors serve as a warning sign that the flamboyant cuttlefish is poisonous. Now look at each animal. Figure out which animal has a similar adaptation. The blue poison dart frog has poisonous glands in its brightly colored skin. Its skin is adapted to ward off predators. The peppered moth has gray and brown patches on its body. Its skin is not adapted to be a warning sign that wards off predators.

Toby is making toast and adding peanut butter to it. He wants to make sure he has 500 calories for breakfast. A piece of bread has 100 calories. A serving of peanut butter has 200 calories. If he has one piece of bread, how many servings of peanut butter should he add?
null
