[Question]: Billy is breeding mice for an experiment. He starts with 8 mice, who each have 6 pups. When the pups grow up, all the mice have another 6 pups. Then each adult mouse eats 2 of their pups due to the stress of overcrowding. How many mice are left?
[Answer]: First find the number of pups in the first generation: 8 mice * 6 pups / mouse = 48 pups. Then add the number of adult mice to find the total number of mice: 48 pups + 8 mice = 56 mice. Then find the number of pups per mouse that survive from the second generation: 6 pups / mouse - 2 pups / mouse = 4 pups / mouse. Then multiply that number by the number of adult mice to find the number of pups in the second generation: 56 mice * 4 pups / mouse = 224 mice. Then add the number of adult mice to the number of second - generation pups to find the total number of mice: 224 mice + 56 mice = 280 mice.
So the answer is 280.

[Question]: Taylor and his friends decide to bring their pets together for a walk. 3 of his friends come first, each having twice as many pets as Taylor has. Another two of his friends have 2 pets each. If Taylor has 4 pets, what's the total number of pets they have together?
[Answer]:
If Taylor has 4 pets, and each of his first friends brings twice as much, the total for each friend is 4 * 2 = 8 pets. The total number of pets for Taylor's first friends is 8 * 3 = 24 pets. The other two friends brought two pets each, a total of 2 * 2 = 4 pets. The total number of pets will be Taylor's pets plus his friend's, which is 4 + 4 + 24 = 32 pets.
So the answer is 32.
