DOG WALKING MONEY
This is my younger brother, Taiga. Our
parents own a pet hotel / grooming
business. My brother loves animals and
often walks the dogs after school. To say
thank you, our parents pay Taiga 300 yen
for each dog that he takes for a 20 minute
walk around the park after school. Last
week, Taiga made 1800 yen. Rich kid!
How many dogs did he walk last week?

SUSHI
Tomoyo, Neil, and Naoko went out for sushi. All together, they
ate 3 blue plates, 3 green plates, 4 red plates and one 500 yen
plate. They decided to split the bill evenly between them. How
much money did each person pay?
