Question: Lara is a contestant on a fun game show where she needs to navigate an inflated bouncy house obstacle course. First she needs to carry a backpack full of treasure through the obstacle course and set it down on the other side, which she does in 7 minutes and 23 seconds. Second, she needs to crank open the door to the obstacle course so she can go back through, which takes her 73 seconds. After she gets through the door she traverses the obstacle course again and makes it out faster without the backpack, in 5 minutes and 58 seconds. How many seconds total does it take her to complete the obstacle course?
Answer: Step-by-step reasoning process: It takes Lara 7 minutes and 23 seconds to make it through the obstacle course the first time. 7 minutes x 60 seconds per minute = 420 seconds + 23 seconds = 443 seconds to get through the first part of the obstacle course. The second stage of the obstacle course she completes in 73 seconds + 443 seconds = 516 seconds. It takes 5 minutes and 58 seconds for Lara to get through the obstacle course the second time. 5 minutes x 60 seconds per minute = 300 + 58 seconds = 358 seconds. Combined, it takes Lara 516 + 358 seconds = 874 seconds for Lara to run the whole obstacle course.
So the answer is 874.

Question: Summer performs 5 sun salutation yoga poses as soon as she gets out of bed, on the weekdays. How many sun salutations will she perform throughout an entire year?

Question: Liam is teaching art to a group of 10 students. He has 20 art kits that he hands out to the students to share, 1 art kit for 2 students. From those art kits half the students make 3 artworks each and half the students make 4 artworks each. How many artistic works does the whole class create?
Answer:
Step-by-step reasoning process: There are 10 students in Liam's art class and 1 / 2 of them make a different amount of artworks than the other half, 1 / 2 x 10 = 5 students. 5 students make 3 artworks each, 5 x 3 = 15 artworks. The other 5 students make 4 artworks each, 5 x 4 = 20 artworks. Combined, the students in the class make 15 + 20 = 35 artworks.
So the answer is 35.
