Marcy is the lunch monitor in an elementary school cafeteria. She gives 5 time-outs for running, 1 less than five times that number of time-outs for throwing food, and 1/3 the number of food-throwing time-outs for swearing. If each time-out is 5 minutes, how much time do the students spend in time-out total?
First multiply the number of running time-outs by 5: 5 time-outs * 5 = <<5*5=25>>25 time-outs
Then subtract 1 from that number to find the number of food-throwing time-outs: 25 time-outs - 1 = <<25-1=24>>24 time-outs
Then divide that number by 3 to find the number of swearing time-outs: 24 time-outs / 3 = <<24/3=8>>8 time-outs
Then add the number of each kind of time-out to find the total number: 8 time-outs + 24 time-outs + 5 time-outs = <<8+24+5=37>>37 time-outs
Then multiply that number by the length of each time-out to find the total time the students spend in time-out: 37 time-outs * 5 minutes/time-out = <<37*5=185>>185 minutes
