1. Maryanne gets the children up at 6:15 a.m. and they leave for school at 7:30 a.m. The time between 6:15 a.m. and 7:30 a.m. is 1 hour and 15 minutes, or 75 minutes.
2. Maryanne paid $75.00 for electricity, $50.00 for house payment, $40.00 for water, and $35.00 for telephone. Adding these amounts: 75 + 50 + 40 + 35 = 200. She paid $200.00 in total.
3. Maryanne has a grocery budget of $15.00 a week and spent $18.64. To find how much she is over budget: 18.64 - 15.00 = 3.64. She is $3.64 over budget.
4. Nicky and Mark are each paid $2.00 per week as allowance. Together, they receive 2.00 + 2.00 = $4.00 per week. Their parents pay them $4.00 per week.
5. There were 75 socks in the wash. Since socks come in pairs, divide 75 by 2: 75 ÷ 2 = 37.5. This means there are 37 full pairs and 1 extra sock. So, there are 37 pairs of socks.
6. Maryanne needs to bake chicken for 2 hours to cook. She plans to serve dinner at 6:00 p.m. To find when she should put the chicken in the oven, subtract 2 hours from 6:00 p.m.: 6:00 p.m. - 2 hours = 4:00 p.m. She should put the chicken in the oven at 4:00 p.m.
Solve the following:
7. 75 ÷ 46 = 1.6304... (approximately 1.63)
8. 62 ÷ 31 = 2
9. 75 ÷ 15 = 5
10. 78 ÷ 3 = 26
11. 6 ÷ 3 = 2
12. 7,386 ÷ 3 = 2,462
