Consider the Q and A. Q: Ali had a stock of 800 books in his Room. He sold 60 on Monday, 10 on Tuesday, 20 on Wednesday, 44 on Thursday and 66 on Friday. How many books were not sold?
A: 600
What is the step-by-step reasoning process?
Step-by-step reasoning process: We look first for the total number of books that were sold: 60 + 10 + 20 + 44 + 66 = 200 books. So the total number of books that were not sold is: 800 – 200 = 600 books.

Consider the Q and A. Q: Jean is wanted on 3 counts of arson, 2 burglary charges, and six times as many petty larceny as burglary charges. If each arson count has a 36-month sentence, each burglary charge is 18 months and each petty larceny charge is 1/3rd as long as a burglary charge, how many months in jail is Jean facing?
A: 216
What is the step-by-step reasoning process?
Step-by-step reasoning process: First find the total time for the burglary charges: 18 months / charge * 2 charges = 36 months. Then find the total time for the arson charges: 3 counts * 36 months / count = 108 months. Then find the time per larceny charge: 18 months / 3 = 6 months. Then find the total number of larceny charges: 2 charges * 6 = 12 charges. Then find the total time for the larceny charges: 6 months / charge * 12 charges = 72 months. Then add up the time for all the charges to find the total jail time: 36 months + 72 months + 108 months = 216 months.

Consider the Q and A. Q: Gabrielle sells eggs. On Monday she sells 5 crates of eggs. On Tuesday she sells 2 times as many crates of eggs as Monday. On Wednesday she sells 2 fewer crates than Tuesday. On Thursday she sells half as many crates of eggs as she sells on Tuesday. How many total crates of eggs does she sell for the 4 days?
A: 28
What is the step-by-step reasoning process?
Step-by-step reasoning process: On Tuesday she sells 5 crates * 2 = 10 crates of eggs. On Wednesday she sells 10 crates - 2 crates = 8 crates of eggs. On Thursday she sells 1 / 2 * 10 crates = 5 crates of eggs. She sells a total of 5 crates + 10 crates + 8 crates + 5 crates = 28 crates of eggs.

Consider the Q and A. Q: Forty percent of the students have elected to learn from home during the pandemic. The remaining students are divided into two equal groups, only one of which is physically in school on any day. What percent of students are present in school?
A: 30
What is the step-by-step reasoning process?
Step-by-step reasoning process:
100 - 40 = 60 percent of students are remaining. 60 / 2 = 30 percent are present in school.
