1. Alex has 373 stamps. Hogan has 150 more than Alex, so Hogan has 373 + 150 = 523 stamps. Together, they have 373 + 523 = 896 stamps.
2. Farmer Sam has 730 cows, 456 goats, and 238 chickens. The total number of farm animals is 730 + 456 + 238 = 1424.
3. There were originally 284 chocolate rolls. After the children ate some, 82 remained. They ate 284 - 82 = 202 chocolate rolls.
4. Mrs. Willy bought 65 roses to share with her 5 friends. This means there are 6 people sharing (Mrs. Willy + 5 friends). Each person gets 65 ÷ 6 = 10.833... roses. Since roses can't be divided into fractions in this context, the problem likely intends for the 65 roses to be shared among the 5 friends only. In that case, each friend gets 65 ÷ 5 = 13 roses.
5. One milk bottle has 500ml of milk. Four bottles have 4 × 500 = 2000ml of milk.
