Name:__________________________
Gang:__________________________

1. Johnny has an AK-47 with an 80-round clip.  If he misses  6 out of 10 shots and shoots 13 times at each drive-by shooting, how many drive-by shootings can he attempt before he has to reload?

2. Jose has 2 ounces of cocaine and he sells an 8-ball to Jackson for $320 and 2 grams to Billy for $85 per  gram.
What is the street value of the balance of the cocaine if he doesn't cut it?

3. Rufus is pimping for three girls.  If the price is $65 for each trick, how many tricks will each girl have to turn so Rufus can pay for his $800-per-day crack habit?

4. Jarone want to cut his 1/2 pound of heroin to make 20% more profit.  How many ounces of cut will he need?

5. Willie gets $200 for stealing a BMW, $50 for a Chevy, and $100 for a 4X4.  If he has stolen 2 BMWs, 3 4X4s, how many Chevies will he have to steal to make $800?

6. Raoul is in prison for 6 years for murder.  He got $10,000 for the hit.  If his common law wife is spending $100 per month, how much money will be left when he gets out of prison and how many years will he get for killing the bitch that spent his money?

7. If the average spray can covers 22 square feet and the average letter is 3 square feet, how many letters can a tagger spray with 3 cans of paint?

I'll take a shot at this rather messed up quiz. "real" answers followed by ones fitting this quiz (FTQ) :D

1) Real answer: 80/13 = 6.something, so 6 times. (FTQ) Johnny needs to get another clip or two.

2) Real answer: indeterminable. 2oz is ~57 grams ... - 2 to billy is 55 grams... - an 8 ball is 1/8 oz or 3.5 grams. What's left is 51.5 grams. 320/3.5= $91.4 per gram, better profit than 85$/gram. At least $4377 though. (FTQ): Jose should make crack out of the rest and really make some profit!

3) 800/65 = 12.3.  12.3/3 girls is roughly 4 tricks each to support his habit. (FTQ) Rufus should buy crack from Jose - it would be cheaper for him, and he can use the extra money to get a low rider Delta 88 with 30" rims.

4) 1/2 lb = 8oz. 8 x 0.2 = 1.6, so 1.6 oz of cut. (FTQ) If Jarone can't figure out how to cut a half pound of pure heroin to less than 80% purity, he's going to have a lot of dead mofos on his hands.

5) 2(200) + 3(100) + x(50) = 800.  x (Chevys) =2  (FTQ) Willie needs to get better prices on the Beemers, yo. I'll give 'em three fiddy for each one.

6) $10,000 - (6 x 12 x $100) = $2,200 left. (FTQ) Not enough, and it depends on what race Raoul is.

7) 22/3 x 3 = 22. (FTQ) Depends on if I catch him tagging my turf. 

8) 6/27 = ~22%. (FTQ) Percentage? I dunno, but Hector is going to be paying a lot of child support.

9) $325 x 15% = $48.75. 48.75/234 = <1, so one kid. (FTQ) Thelma ain't gettin no child support, fool! She don't even know who the daddies is. Thelma needs to take some of them food stamps and glue her crotch shut!

10) $25,000 x 12% = $3000. (FTQ) Salvador ain't lose nothing man. He got his girlfriend to pay that money and then he dumped her!

I want to see a "redneck" quiz like this.  :D

1.  Johnny needs rifle lessons if he's missing that much...of course, he's doing a heck of a lot better than the A-Team did :P

2.  What's the going rate for cocaine in today's market?  I don't think they have a listing on the NYSE.

3.  Rufus needs either better girls or better customers if all they're getting is $65...

4.  What is this, magic heroin?  He can only sell what he has, and if his homies don't figure out that he threw soap flakes into each stash, then they're truly F'ed up.

5.  Willie should crash his Chevy into his so-called "benefactor" because he's totally getting shafted.

6.  I doubt she'd only spend $100 a month, and if that's strike three for Raoul, he needs to call a decorator for his cell for life.

7.  I think Will Smith only got away with one before the cop told him off, but that was in Philly.

8.  Apparently only the hot ones.

9.  What, the kids don't need diapers or clothes?  WTF?

10.  Just the $3000, assuming he was sober enough to remember to get his cash stash out of his mattress before bailing.
