There are a number of possible combinations for this open-ended question, so here's an example question and answer, in which the two are non-related:
James' car is going at 45 miles per hour, and that is 42% of his maximum speed. How much slower does James have to go to be 27% of his maximum speed?
Amy's car used to be able to go at 45 miles per hour as 42% of her maximum speed, but due to the new upgrade, 45 miles per hour is now only 27% of her maximum speed.
Even though we are using variables, we still know that "difference" means subtraction. So, if the larger is x1 and x2, those variables go first. The smaller, y1 and y2 will go second. So our problem will look like this:
(x1 < x2 ? x2 : x1) - (y1 < y2 ? y1 : y2)
25 x 0.1 = 2.5 ≈ 3
25 + 3 = 28

Since 6x6 equals 36, then 6² would be the exponent because 6² is the same as 6x6
Given:
A car dealer acquires a used car for $14,000, with terms FOB shipping point.
Transportation cost = $100
Shipping insurance = $120
Car import duties = $970
To find:
The total inventory costs assigned to the used car.
Solution:
We know that,
Inventory costs = Value of used car + Transportation cost + Shipping insurance + Car import duties
Inventory costs = $14,000 + $100 + $120 + $970
Inventory costs = $15,190
Therefore, total inventory costs assigned to the used car is $15,190.
