Reasoning and answer: Saly saves 1 / 2 * $6 / day = $3 / day. Since each year have 365 days, the total amount of money Sally will save in a year is $3 / day * 365 days / year = $1095 / year. Bob saves 1 / 2 * $4 / day = $2 / day. The total amount of money Bob will have saved in a year is $2 / day * 365 days / year = $730 / year. In total, Sally and Bob would have saved $730 + $1095 = $1825.
The answer: 1825

Reasoning and answer: Four $5 bills amount to $5 x 4 = $20. Three $20 bills amount to $20 x 3 = $60. So Gail's $5 and $20 bills amount to $20 + $60 = $80. Thus, her $10 bills amount to $100 - $80 = $20. Therefore, she has $20 / $10 = 2 $10 bills.
The answer: 2
