Antonio is at the San Antonio Stock Show and wants to buy some corn dogs and lemonade. The table below shows the prices of the items. Corn dogs cost $4 each, and lemonade costs $2 each. If he buys 3 corn dogs and 2 lemonades, how much money will he spend in total?
- $14
- $16 ✓
- $12
- $10
Why: To find the total cost, first calculate the cost of the corn dogs: 3 corn dogs × $4 = $12. Then calculate the cost of the lemonades: 2 lemonades × $2 = $4. Now, add the two amounts together: $12 + $4 = $16. Therefore, Antonio will spend a total of $16.
Carlos is planting a garden in his backyard in Waco, Texas. He has a table that shows the number of square feet for different garden sections. If one section is 12 square feet and another section is 3 square feet, how many square feet are there in total for both sections?

- 9
- 12
- 36
Why: To find the total area of the two sections of the garden, add the sizes of both sections together. Carlos has one section that is 12 square feet and another that is 3 square feet. So, 12 + 3 equals 15 square feet in total.
Faris visited a local farmer's market in Central Texas. He bought 3 pounds of tomatoes and 2 pounds of cucumbers. If each pound of tomatoes costs $2 and each pound of cucumbers costs $3, what is the total amount Faris spent on vegetables?

- $9
- $10
Why: To find the total amount Faris spent, first calculate the cost of the tomatoes: 3 pounds × $2 = $6. Next, calculate the cost of the cucumbers: 2 pounds × $3 = $6. Finally, add both amounts together: $6 + $6 = $12. Therefore, the correct answer is $12.
Isabella is planning a bake sale at the San Antonio Stock Show to raise money for her school's science fair. She made 120 cookies and packaged them in boxes of 10 cookies each. How many boxes did she fill with cookies?
- 12 ✓
- 10
- 120
- 15
Why: To find the number of boxes filled with cookies, divide the total number of cookies (120) by the number of cookies per box (10). So, 120 ÷ 10 = 12. Therefore, Isabella filled 12 boxes with cookies.
Imani is helping her family prepare traditional Czech kolaches for a festival in West, Texas. The recipe calls for 4 cups of flour to make 12 kolaches. If Imani wants to make 24 kolaches, how many cups of flour will she need?
- 8 ✓
- 6
- 10
- 12
Why: The recipe uses 4 cups of flour for 12 kolaches, which means each kolache requires 4 / 12 = 1/3 cup of flour. To find out how much flour is needed for 24 kolaches, multiply 1/3 cup by 24. This equals 8 cups of flour, so Imani will need 8 cups to make 24 kolaches.
Cristian is helping his family at their ranch in Lubbock, Texas. They have a table that shows the number of gallons of water needed for their cattle. If they need 3 gallons of water for each cow and they have 4 cows, how many gallons do they need in total?
