Happy 5th of July! Here are some cookout problems to solve.
Tera had a cookout with her friends and family. They used 5 packages of hotdog. They used 4 packages of hamburgers. They used 5 packages of rolls.
There were 8 hotdogs in each package. There were 6 hamburgers in each package. And there were 12 rolls in each package.
- How many hotdogs did they eat?
- How many hamburgers did they eat?
- How many of the hotdogs or hamburgers got eaten without any roll?
Rachael lit some sparklers to celebrate the 4th of July. She had 8 boxes of sparklers. Each box held 8 sparklers. At the end of the night there were 12 sparklers left. How many did Rachael light during their celebration?
Sully went to Bailey’s Dockside for ice cream. He sat on a bench to watch the boats while he was eating his sundae. While he was there he saw 14 people get cones with 2 scoops of ice cream, 26 people who got cones with one scoop and 7 people who got banana splits – they all had three scoops.
How many scoops of ice cream did Dockside serve while Sully was eating his sundae?
The answer to the first problem is
8×5=40 hotdogs
4×6=24 hamburgers
5×12=60 buns
64-60=04
Hi Liam! Great work with the math problems. I hope you’re having a terrific vacation!

75 scoops of ice cream. Mrs. Eaves, I have had ice cream cones but I have not yet had a sundae or a banana split!!! But my brothers have. Do you think that is unfair? haha
I hope you are having a great summer. Sully
I’m not sure about the fairness thing – sometimes sundaes are just too big and sometimes toppings don’t go great with ice cream flavors. I think cones are the best – but sometimes they are too big too.
Thanks for totaling the scoops of ice cream. I hope you had fun doing the problem. Mrs. Eaves
