The document contains 10 word problems from various mathematical domains such as probability, combinations, ratios, and geometry. The problems involve calculating things like the probability of getting certain outcomes from random selections, determining remainders when polynomials are divided, finding the number of arrangements of letters in a word with constraints, and calculating depths and lengths based on partial information.

A store has three kinds of toys given in every purchase. What is the probability of getting all three toys in five purchases? How many arrangements can be made from the letters of the word MATHEMATICS if the consonants are to be together? If 8 men take 12 days to assemble 16 machines, how many days will it take 15 men to assemble 50 machines? How many five-digit even numbers greater than 40,000 can be made using the digits 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 without repetition? A real estate agent has 8 master keys to open several homes. Only 1 master key will open any given house. If 40% of these homes are usually left unlocked, what is the probability that the real estate agent can get into a specific home if the agent selects 3 master keys at random before leaving the office? When a polynomial f(x) is divided by (x−1), the remainder is 5 and when it is divided by (x−2), the remainder is 7. Find the remainder when it is divided by (x−1)(x−2). A proposal was lost in which 600 persons voted; the same persons having voted again on the same proposal, it was carried by twice as many as it was before lost by and the new majority is to the former as 8:7. How many changed their minds? While visiting Cape Kennedy, we came upon an engineer digging a hole.
“How deep is that hole?” we asked.
”Guess,” said the engineer, being evasive.
”My height is exactly 5 feet 10 inches. I am one-third done, and when I am finished, my head will be twice as far below ground as it is now above ground.”
