Question: Janet counts 30 crows on the powerlines and 60% more hawks than crows. How many birds does she count total?
Answer: Step-by-step reasoning process: First find how many more hawks than crows there are: 60% * 30 crows = 18 crows. Then add that number to the number of crows to find the total number of hawks: 18 crows + 30 crows = 48 crows. Then add the number of crows to the number of hawks to find the total number of birds: 48 crows + 30 crows = 78 crows.
So the answer is 78.

Question: A tank with a capacity of 8000 gallons is 3/4 full. Daxton empty's the tank by 40% of the total volume of water in the tank to water his vegetable farm. He then fills the tank with 30% of the volume of water remaining in the tank. Calculate the final volume of water in the tank.
Answer: Step-by-step reasoning process: The volume of water that is in the tank initially is 3 / 4 * 8000 = 6000 gallons. When Daxton empties 40% of the water, he pumps out 40 / 100 * 6000 = 2400 gallons of water. The total volume of water remaining in the tank is 6000 - 2400 = 3600 gallons. Daxton then fills the tank with 30 / 100 * 3600 = 1080 gallons of water. The final volume of water in the tank is 3600 + 1080 = 4680 gallons.
So the answer is 4680.

Question: Matthew and his brother Shawn played swimming-pool-basketball. Each basket was worth 3 points. Matthew scored 9 points. Shawn scored 6 points. What is the total number of baskets made during this game?
Answer:
Step-by-step reasoning process: Matthew scored 9 points and there are 3 points per basket, so he made 9 / 3 = 3 baskets. Shawn scored 6 points, so he made 6 / 3 = 2 baskets. The total number of baskets made is 3 + 2 = 5 baskets made.
So the answer is 5.
