Answer each of the following word problems. Make sure you distinguish between
sequence and series problems and arithmetic and geometric problems.
15) How many three-digit numbers are multiples of fifteen?
16) Find the sum of the set of all the four-digit numbers divisible by 18.
17) You are building a savings account. You save $40 the first month, $52 the next, $64
the third month, and so on. What is the total amount of money you will have saved
after two years?
18) A biology experiment begins with 27 flobdoodles. Each flobdoodle reproduces only
once, and in that reproduction produces 3 flobdoodles. Hence, after one
reproduction cycle, the original 27 flobdoodles are alive and have been joined by 81
offspring. These 81 flobdoodles then produce 243 additional offspring, and the
process continues. After fourteen reproduction cycles, have many flobdoodles are
there?
19) A ball is dropped from a height of 72 feet and rebounds three-fourths of the way.
How far will the ball travel before coming to rest?
20) A landscape design artist is constructing a brick pyramid in Mrs. Fibonacci’s
backyard. The base has 47 bricks, and each successive base has 4 less bricks. The
last row has 3 bricks. How many bricks are in the pyramid design?
21) Archie is saving money toward his car insurance bill. The first week he saves $2,
the next week $4, and the next week $8. If he continues at that rate, how much
will he have saved after ten weeks? Would it be enough to pay his premium of
$2700?
