Question: Claire is scheduling her day. She has four hours to clean and two hours to cook, then divides the rest of her working day equally between crafting and tailoring. She then sleeps eight hours. If all of this takes place within one day, how many hours did Claire spend crafting?
Answer: Step-by-step reasoning process: We know Claire has spent a total of 24 hours in a day - 4 hours cleaning - 2 hours cooking - 8 hours sleeping = 10 hours crafting and tailoring. Since she split her time equally, she must have spent 10 hours * 0.5 = 5 hours crafting.
So the answer is 5.

Question: Susie and Britney each keep chickens, of two different breeds. Susie has 11 Rhode Island Reds and 6 Golden Comets. Britney has twice as many Rhode Island Reds as Susie, but only half as many Golden Comets. How many more chickens are in Britney's flock than in Susie's?
Answer: Step-by-step reasoning process: Britney has 11 * 2 = 22 Rhode Island Reds. She has 6 / 2 = 3 Golden Comets. She has 22 + 3 = 25 total. Susie has 11 + 6 = 17 total. Britney has 25 - 17 = 8 more.
So the answer is 8.

Question: Elsa gets 500 MB of cell phone data each month. If she spends 300 MB watching Youtube and 2/5 of what's left on Facebook, how many MB of data does she have left?
Answer: Step-by-step reasoning process: First subtract the 300 MB Elsa spent on YouTube: 500 MB - 300 MB = 200 MB. Then multiply 200 MB by 2 / 5th to find out how much data Elsa spent on Facebook: 200 MB * 2 / 5 = 80 MB. Finally, subtract the data Elsa spent on Facebook from the 200 MB: 200 MB - 80 MB = 120 MB.
So the answer is 120.

Question: Karen had the giant box of crayons, containing twice as many crayons as were in Beatrice's box. But Beatrice's box contained twice as many crayons as were in Gilbert's box of crayons. And Gilbert had four times as many crayons as were in Judah's box of crayons. If Karen's box contained 128 crayons, how many crayons were in Judah's box?
Answer:
Step-by-step reasoning process: If Karen's 128 crayons were twice as many as were in Beatrice's box, there were 128 / 2 = 64 crayons in Beatrice's box. And since Beatrice's box contained twice as many crayons as were in Gilbert's box of crayons, then Gilbert had 64 / 2 = 32 crayons. And since Gilbert had four times as many crayons as Judah, then Judah had 32 / 4 = 8 crayons.
So the answer is 8.
