Jeremy buys a value pack of cheese crackers that contains 42 1/2 ounces of crackers. He divides this into servings of 1 1/4 ounces each. What is the total number of servings Jeremy can make from the value pack?
The total number of servings Jeremy can make is 42 1/2 / 1 1/4 = <<42.5/1.25=34>>34. Answer: \boxed{34}.
A hot air balloon leaves the ground and rises to an elevation of 1,100 feet. During the next 30 minutes, it descends 500 feet, rises 950 feet, descends 375 feet, and finally passes over a school. What is the elevation of the balloon when it passes over the school?
When the balloon descends 500 feet, its elevation is 1,100 - 500 = <<1100-500=600>>600 feet.
When it rises 950 feet, its elevation becomes 600 + 950 = <<600+950=1550>>1550 feet.
When it descends 375 feet, its final elevation is 1550 - 375 = <<1550-375=1175>>1175 feet. Answer: \boxed{1175}.
Aaron works 3 1/2 hours every Saturday at a rate of $7.25 per hour. He is paid every four weeks. If his boss gives him a $1.00 raise, how much will Aaron be paid in his next paycheck?
Aaron earns 3 1/2 hours x $7.25/hour = $<<3.5*7.25=25.38>>25.38 every Saturday.
There are 52 weeks in a year, so Aaron gets paid 52 weeks / 4 = 13 times in a year.
His pay raise is $1.00, so his new hourly rate is $7.25 + $1.00 = $<<7.25+1=8.25>>8.25.
Aaron's new hourly pay is $8.25, so he will earn $8.25/hour x 3 1/2 hours = $<<8.25*3.5=28.88>>28.88 every Saturday.
His new paycheck will be $28.88/week x 13 weeks = $<<28.88*13=375.44>>375.44. Answer: \boxed{375.44}.
Aaron works
hours every Saturday at a rate of $7.25 per hour. He is paid every four weeks. If his boss gives him a $1.00 raise, how much will Aaron be paid in his next paycheck?
A.
$95.70
B.
$101.50
C.
$108.90
D.
$115.50
To determine Aaron's earnings in one week before the raise, we multiply his hours worked (3.5 hours) by his hourly pay rate ($7.25/hour):
3.5 hours * $7.25/hour = $25.38.
Since Aaron is paid every four weeks, his earnings for four weeks before the raise can be found by multiplying his weekly earnings by four:
$25.38 * 4 = $101.52.
With the $1.00 raise, Aaron's new hourly pay rate becomes $7.25 + $1.00 = $8.25/hour.
To determine Aaron's weekly earnings after the raise, we multiply his new hourly pay rate by the number of hours worked:
3.5 hours * $8.25/hour = $28.88.
Multiplying Aaron's new weekly earnings by four gives us his earnings for four weeks after the raise:
$28.88 * 4 = $115.52.
Therefore, Aaron will be paid $115.52 in his next paycheck, which is closest to option D: $\boxed{115.50}$.
