Q: Lily bought a Russian nesting doll as a souvenir. The biggest doll is 243 cm tall, and each doll is 2/3rd the size of the doll that contains it. How big is the 6th biggest doll?
A: First find the size of the second - biggest doll: 243 cm * 2 / 3 = 162 cm. Then find the size of the third - biggest doll: 162 cm * 2 / 3 = 108 cm. Then find the size of the fourth - biggest doll: 108 cm * 2 / 3 = 72 cm. Then find the size of the fifth - biggest doll: 72 cm * 2 / 3 = 48 cm. Then find the size of the sixth - biggest doll: 48 cm * 2 / 3 = 32 cm. The answer is 32.
Question: Magdalena has an apple tree on their farm, producing very few apples each year for a while now. However, this year, the apple tree yield was excellent, and it grew 200 apples. Magdalena picked 1/5 of the fruits on the first day, twice that number on the second day, and 20 more apples than he picked on the first day on the third day. Calculate the total number of apples remaining in the tree.
Answer: Magdalena picked 1 / 5 * 200 apples = 40 apples on the first day. On the second day, she picked 2 * 40 apples = 80 apples from the tree. The total number of apples that he picked on the third day is 40 apples + 20 apples = 60 apples. In total, she picked 40 apples + 80 apples + 60 apples = 180 apples in the three days. The total number of apples remaining in the tree is 200 apples - 180 apples = 20 apples. The answer is 20.

Question: Jim decides to open up a bike shop. The most common repair he does is fixing bike tires. He charges $20 for this and it cost him $5 in parts. In one month Jim does 300 of these repairs. He also does 2 more complex repairs for $300 each and cost $50 in parts. He also sells $2000 profit worth of things from his retail shop. If rent and other fixed expense for the shop is $4000 a month how much profit did the shop make?
Answer: From each tire repair, he made 20 - 5 = $15 profit. So repairs made him a profit of 15 * 300 = $4500. The two complex repairs each made him 300 - 50 = $250 profit. So those added 250 * 2 = $500. So his total profit from everything was 4500 + 500 + 2000 = $7000. So he made a profit of 7000 - 4000 = $3000. The answer is 3000.
Q: Team Soccer Stars plays in a soccer league. They played a total of 20 games, and won 14 games, lost 2, and drew the rest of the matches. They earn 3 points for a win, 1 point for a draw, and nothing for a loss. How many points did they have at the end of the season?
A:
Soccer Stars won and lost a total of 14 + 2 = 16 games. This means they drew 20 - 16 = 4 games. The total points from the wins are 14 * 3 = 42 points. The total points from draws are 4 * 1 = 4 points. The total points from the losses are 2 * 0 = 0 points. They had 42 + 4 + 0 = 46 points when the season ended. The answer is 46.
