  1. A job posting reads: 'Part-time cashier wanted. Hours: Monday–Friday, 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. Starting wage: $17.50/hour. Requirements: Must be 16 or older, available weekends for training. Benefits available after 90 days.' How many hours per week does this position offer?

    Answer: 25 hours

    The job runs 5 hours per day (9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.) across 5 weekdays, giving 5 × 5 = 25 hours per week.

  2. A bus schedule reads: 'Route 42 departures from Main Street — 7:15 a.m., 8:00 a.m., 8:45 a.m., 9:30 a.m. Travel time to City Hall: 20 minutes.' Maria has an appointment at City Hall at 9:00 a.m. What is the latest bus she can take?

    Answer: 8:00 a.m.

    The 8:00 a.m. bus arrives at City Hall at 8:20 a.m., before her 9:00 a.m. appointment. The 8:45 a.m. bus would arrive at 9:05 a.m., which is too late.

  3. A water bill states: 'Billing period: April 1–April 30. Water used: 18 cubic metres. Rate: $2.75 per cubic metre. Fixed service charge: $12.00. Total amount due: $61.50. Payment due: May 15.' What is the charge for water consumption only, not including the fixed service charge?

    Answer: $49.50

    18 cubic metres × $2.75 = $49.50. The fixed service charge of $12.00 is added separately, giving the total of $61.50.

  4. A prescription label reads: 'Amoxicillin 500 mg. Take ONE capsule THREE times daily with food. Complete the full course. Qty: 21 capsules. Refills: 0.' For how many days should the patient take this medication?

    Answer: 7 days

    21 capsules ÷ 3 capsules per day = 7 days. The patient takes one capsule three times a day until all 21 are gone.

  5. A store return policy sign reads: 'Returns accepted within 30 days of purchase with original receipt. Items must be unused and in original packaging. Sale items: exchange or store credit only — no cash refunds. Electronics: 14-day return window.' A customer bought a regularly priced kitchen blender 25 days ago but has lost the receipt. Can they return it for a refund?

    Answer: No, the original receipt is required

    The policy clearly states that a return requires the original receipt. Even though 25 days is within the 30-day window, the missing receipt disqualifies the return.

  6. A community centre newsletter states: 'Spring programs begin April 7. Registration opens March 10 for members and March 17 for non-members. Annual membership: $45/individual, $75/family. Drop-in rate: $8 per visit. Members receive a 20% discount on all registered programs.' A non-member family wants to sign up for a spring program. When is the earliest they can register?

    Answer: March 17

    The newsletter states registration opens March 17 for non-members. The March 10 date applies to members only.
