1. 8x10=80÷1/2=160+12=172 cause u got 8 fingers and 2 thumbs.. thumbs arent fingers..

2. simple... 9

3. 72÷6=12. so Jenn has 12 Beanie Babies, Mollie has 24 Beanie Babies, and Allison has 36 Beanie Babies

4. If Kevin is 6'6, George 5'4" tall, and Richard 6' tall because he is 6" shorter than Kevin and 8" tall than George

5. 8+7+6+5+4+3+2+1=36

7. 50 matches to 50 winners, round 2 would have 25 matches to25 winners, round 3 would have 12 matches to 12 winners
round 4 has 6 matches to 6 winners, round 5 would have 3 matches to 3 winners, round 6 would have 2 matches to get 2 winners, these 2 would play for the championship so.......... 50 + 25 + 12 + 6 + 3 + 2 + 1 =99
but i was readin it and i think there is 2 answers... the 2nd answer i got was 111 matches.. its complicated.. but yeah.. dunno if its right...

8. 55+80=135mph. Divide speed by 60 minutes, traveling each minute=2.25 miles/minute. soo... 2 minutes before impact they are 4.5 miles apart...

9. 60/30 = 2 hours, and the trip back = 60/20 = 3 hours. so... the 120 mile trip = 120/5 = 24 mph.

10. 100 pieces are made in 99 cuts. The last cut made in 2 pieces instead of only one piece. so... 297 sec

11.10000X + 10000Y = 50000, Divide by 10000 to give: X + Y = 5, Subtract 3502X - 3502Y = 3502, Divide by 3502 to give: X - Y = 1
X = 3 and Y = 2

12. takes 3 hours for the friends to hoook up so the pigeon flies for 3 hours at 18 mph = 54 miles.

13. he weighs 147 pounds + half of his body weight, the 147 pounds is the other half. he weighs 294 pounds.

14. 30 hens will also need 18 days, yo cant shorten the process

15. Fill tha 3 gallon pitcher and pour it into the 5 gallon one, Now fill the 3 gallon pitcher again and fill the 5 one pitcher to max. What is left in the 3 gallon pitcher is one gallon of whateva it is...

16. 3 students received an A.

17. Divide 250 by 11 which equals 22.8. extra 8 scraps with the scraps you have from the 22 bars, you have 30 more They they make 2 more bars so....the total is 24 bars...

18. Kerry eats 24 while Pete eats 8 - 32 ÷ 4 = 8 takes them 45 minutes.

19. He had 6 oranges and ate 2 the first day and 2 the second.

20. Joan is 32 - Jane is 28 - and Jean is 16.

which ones are wrong?

11. Here's my theory..probly wrong but its a shot...

6751X + 3249Y = 26751
3249X + 6751Y = 23249

6751-3249 = 3502...26751-23249 = 3502...subtract the equations and get

3502x - 3502y = 3502..to get this to work x would have to be twice the amount of y because y negates 3502 times that amount...so the solved equation if x=2y ...because x is whatever y is doubled...how's that?

1. 10 x 10= 100/.5= 200+12= 212

2. 1 Mom + 1 Dad+ 6 bros+ 1 sis= 9 (all brothers means the sister remains the same)

3. 72/3= 24/3=
8 Beanie Babies for Jen
24 Beanie Babies for Allison
40 Beanie babies for Molly

*4. 14-2= 12 in- 6' 6"= 5'6
Richard- 5'6
George- 6'8

5. 8*9= 72 times

6. Since the amoebas amount doubled, the time cuts in half. 5 min.

7. 100/2= 50 matches (maybe 49?)

8. I hate trains so I'm not gonna do this one.

9. 25 MPH

10. 300 seconds

I'll post the next 10 soon.

18/2.5= 7.2 miles

13. 147/2= 73.5+ 147= 220.5 lbs.

14. 30/20= 1.5*30= 45 eggs

15. Looks at the marks on the side. word

16.
1/3 of 30=10 B's

17. 250/11- 27.72...= 27 (can't round up)

18. Depends on who eats more. If they split em then the answer will differ if Kerry eats 30 and Pete eats 2.

19. 2*2= 4*3= 12

20. Screw that it's too late to try and think that hard.

I did the ones that were easy for me.

1. 212
2. 9 people...mom, dad, 6 sons, 1 daughter
3. jenn has 12, mollie has 24, and allison has 36
4. Kevin = 6'6"
Richard = 6'0"
George = 5'4"
5. 36 times
6. 9 minutes
7. 99 matches played
8. 4.5 miles apart...fucka ecplanation
9. depends how far the person travelled...i'll pretend he had to go 60 miles...so 2 hours there and 3 hours back...so he went 120 miles in 5 hours...therefore he averaged 24 mph
10. 3 seconds times 99 cuts...so it took 297 seconds..or 4 minutes and 57 seconds
11. combine the 2 equations so it is 10000X + 10000Y = 50000...divide by 10000 to get x + y = 5
or you could subtract both equations and get 3502X-3502Y=3502..divide by 3502...x - y = 1
Therefore X=3 and Y=2
12. fuck...that little fuckin pigeon flew 54 miles
13. john is a big dude...he weighs 194 lbs
14. eggs hatch in the same amount of time so, they still need 18 days to hatch 30 eggs
15. fill up the 3 gallon one and dump it into the 5 gallon one...then fill the 3 gallon one again and dump it in the 5 gallon one til it's full...u'll then have one gallon left in the 3 gallon one
16. 3 of them got A's
17. you have the 250 + the 24 the scraps make so all together u have 274
18. kerry eats 24 and pete eats 8...it takes them 45 minutes
19. he started with 6 oranges
20. Joan = 32
Jane = 28
Jean = 16


jesus christ that took a long time...my account is XPETBK-33747
