Math Problem Statement
Solution
Let's go through the math problems on the sheet one by one.
Opgave 1:
Peter is going on vacation and needs to buy various items:
- T-shirt: 199 kr
- Toothbrush set: 58.50 kr
- 3 pairs of underwear: 39 kr per pair
a) What is the total cost?
Total cost = 199 + 58.50 + (3 × 39)
= 199 + 58.50 + 117
= 374.50 kr
b) Peter pays with a 500 kr bill. How much change does he get?
Change = 500 - 374.50 = 125.50 kr
Opgave 2:
Lærke is at a café, and the prices are on a sign:
- Bolle with tun: 37 kr
- Sodavand: 25 kr
- Danskvand: 15 kr
- Cake with a topping: 23 kr
- Coffee with milk: 27 kr
a) What is the price for a Danish bun, a bun with tuna, and a cake?
Cost = Danish bun (15 kr) + bun with tuna (37 kr) + cake (23 kr)
= 15 + 37 + 23 = 75 kr
b) If she orders this same meal 4 times a month for a year (52 weeks), how much will it cost for the year?
Cost per year = 75 kr × 4 × 12 months = 3,600 kr
Opgave 3:
A group of 22 students and 2 teachers are going on a trip to Sæby for 5 days (4 nights). They will stay at a campsite. The expenses per person are:
- Food: 65 kr per day per person
- Cabin rental: 85 kr per night per person
- Transportation: 7,000 kr total
- Other expenses: 125 kr per person
- Additional expenses: 2,500 kr total
a) What is the total cost for the trip?
For 24 people (22 students + 2 teachers):
- Food: kr
- Cabin rental: kr
- Transport: 7,000 kr
- Other expenses: kr
- Additional expenses: 2,500 kr
Total cost = 7,800 + 8,160 + 7,000 + 3,000 + 2,500 = 28,460 kr
b) What is the cost per person? (Round to the nearest whole number)
Cost per person = 28,460 / 24 = 1,186 kr (rounded)
Opgave 4:
Oliver has an agreement with his parents that if he leaves his confirmation money (25,000 kr) in the bank without using it, they will give him 6% interest per year.
a) How much does Oliver have after the first year?
Interest for year 1 = kr
Total after year 1 = 25,000 + 1,500 = 26,500 kr
b) How much will he have after 3 years?
For compound interest:
Year 2: kr
Year 3: kr
So, Oliver will have 29,775.40 kr after 3 years.
Would you like further clarification on any of these solutions? Here are five related questions you can try:
- If Peter wanted to buy two toothbrush sets, what would the total cost be in Opgave 1?
- How much change would Peter get if he only had 400 kr instead of 500 kr in Opgave 1?
- What would the yearly cost for Lærke be if she ordered the meal 5 times a month instead of 4 in Opgave 2?
- How would the cost per person change if only 20 students went on the trip in Opgave 3?
- If Oliver got 8% interest instead of 6%, how much would he have after 3 years in Opgave 4?
Tip: When dealing with interest rates, compound interest grows faster than simple interest!
