The Quest For Unicorns! (Multi-step word problems)

A group of friends want to travel the world and find unicorns. There are 14 girls and 15 boys. Each person needs to buy a train ticket that cost $8. How much money does the group need to save?

• $321

• $232

• $112

• $120

On their trip, they meet five loot llamas. Each of the first 4 loot llamas gives them 6 jars of unicorn attracting slime and the last llama gives them 10 jars of slime. Which equation could be used to figure out how much slime (s) they have in all?

• 5 + 4 + 6 + 10 = s

• 5 + 6 x 10 = s

• 4 x 6 + 10 = s

• 4 + 6 x 10 = s

With their slime in hand, the group travels on in search of the unicorns. They find a recipe for perfect unicorn bate. It says they need 3/6 cup of blue slime, 2/6 cup of green slime with glitter and 4/6 cup of red butter slime. How much slime will they mix together after following this recipe?

• 9/18 cup

• 1/2 cup

• 1 1/12 cups

• 1 2/3 cups

Now that their bate is ready, the group heads to the flying battle bus that will take them to the unicorn mountain. They meet another group also searching for unicorns called the Bush Campers. Our group has spent $13,887 on the adventure so far. The Bush Campers have spent $31,502 (They had to travel from VERY farm away!) How much more did the Bush campers spend?

• $17,645

• $17,615

• $16,867

• $45,389

All of the sudden the two groups are ambushed by a squad of skull troopers doing the default dance. Bush Campers run away frightened but leave behind a map, TO THE UNICORNS!!! It says the unicorns live as many steps as 532 put into four groups? What does that mean?

• 532 times 4 = 2,218 steps!

• 532 times 4 = 2,128 steps!

• 532 divided by 4 = 123 steps!

• 532 divided by 4 = 133 steps!

They arrive at the location on the map but realize that they must split up to search the area. If their are 29 friends and they make groups of 4, how many people will be left over?

• 1

• 2

• 3

• 4

The 7 groups each searched the mountain. Team A searched an are that was 12 ft by 8 ft. Team B searched an area that was 5ft by 18 ft. Team C searched an area that was 24ft by 2 ft. The rest of the teams spent their whole time wandering around afraid that the strom was getting too close to them. Which team searched the largest area?

• Team A

• Team B

• Team C

• They all searched the same area

They finally found the Unicorns!! Yippi! There were enough unicorns for each of the 14 girls and 15 boys to have 12! How many unicorns were there?

• 29 unicorns

• 290 unicorns

• 194 unicorns

• 348 unicorns
