Q: Emberly takes her mornings walks every day. If each walk takes her 1 hour covering 4 miles, and she didn't walk for 4 days in March, calculate the total number of miles she's walked.
A: In March, she walked for 31 - 4 = 27 days. If she walks for an hour a day, the total number of hours she'll walk in March is 27 days * 1 hour a day = 27 hours. If each walk is 4 miles, the number of miles she walked in March is 27 * 4 = 108 miles. The answer is 108.
Question: John is twice as old as Mary and half as old as Tonya. If Tanya is 60, what is their average age?
Answer: John is 30 because 60 / 2 = 30. Mary is fifteen because 30 / 2 = 15. Their total age is 105 because 60 + 30 + 15 = 105. Their average age is 35 because 105 / 3 = 35. The answer is 35.
[Question]Peter has four horses. Each one eats 4 pounds of oats, twice a day, and 3 pounds of grain once a day. How many pounds of food does he need to feed his horses for 3 days?
[Answer]Peter needs 2 * 4 pounds of oats = 8 pounds of oats per horse per day. Peter will need 8 pounds oats * 3 days = 24 pounds of oats per horse. Peter will need 24 pounds of oats * 4 horses = 96 pounds of oats total. Peter needs 3 pounds of grain * 3 days per horse = 9 pounds of grain per horse. Peter will need 9 pounds of grain * 4 horses = 36 pounds of grain total. For 3 days Peter will need a total of 96 pounds oats + 36 pounds grain = 132 pounds total. The answer is 132.
Q: Tom charges a fee of $100 a day to search for an item for the first 5 days and then $60 per day for every day after that. How much did it cost for him to look for an item for 10 days?
A: The first 5 days cost 5 * 100 = $500. He gets 10 - 5 = 5 days on discount. He paid 5 * 60 = $300 at the discounted rate. So in total he pays 500 + 300 = $800. The answer is 800.
Question: Daragh had 20 stuffed bears. She took out her favorite 8 bears and then equally divided the other bears among her 3 sisters. Daragh's youngest sister, Eden, already had 10 stuffed bears. How many stuffed bears does Eden have now?
Answer: Take the number of bears Daragh has left after taking her favorite 8 bears out: 20 bears - 8 bears = 12 bears. Divide these amongst Daragh's 3 sisters: 12 bears / 3 sisters = 4 bears per sister. Add the 4 bears to Eden's current bears: 10 bears + 4 bears = 14 bears. The answer is 14.
Q: Natalie's father has saved up $10,000 to split up between his kids. Natalie will get half, as she is the oldest. Rick will get 60 percent of the remaining money, and Lucy will get whatever is left after Natilie and Rick get paid. How much money does Lucy get?
