Q: At the museum, Bethany saw 4 times more still lifes than portraits. If she saw 80 paintings total, how many portraits did she see?
A: Let s be the number of still lifes Bethany saw and p be the number of portraits. We know that s + p = 80 and s = 4p. Substituting the second equation into the first equation, we get 4p + p = 80. Combining like terms, we get 5p = 80. Dividing both sides by 5, we get p = 16. The answer is 16.

Q: Teddy is a pillow-maker. He uses 3 less than 5 pounds of fluffy foam material to make each pillow. If Teddy has three tons of fluffy foam material, how many pillows can he make?
A: Three less than 5 is 5 - 3 = 2. Since one ton is 2000 pounds, three tons is 2000 * 3 = 6000 pounds. Thus, in 6000 pounds, he can make 6000 / 2 = 3000 pillows. The answer is 3000.

Q: A candy store sold 20 pounds of fudge for $2.50/pound, 5 dozen chocolate truffles for $1.50 each and 3 dozen chocolate-covered pretzels at $2.00 each. How much money did the candy store make?
A:
20 pounds of fudge at $2.50 / pounds is 20 * 2.50 = $50.00. The 5 dozen truffles were sold in individual units so a dozen is equal to 12 so 5 * 12 = 60. 60 chocolate truffles, at $1.50 each sold for 60 * 1.50 = $90.00. The 3 dozen chocolate pretzels sold in individual units so a dozen is equal to 12 so 3 * 12 = 36. 36 chocolate pretzels sold for $2.00 each sold for 36 * 2 = $72.00. All total, the store made 50 + 90 + 72 = $212.00 from candy sales. The answer is 212.
