Question: Teresa is 59 and her husband Morio is 71 years old. Their daughter, Michiko was born when Morio was 38. How old was Teresa when she gave birth to Michiko?
Answer: Step-by-step reasoning process: The difference in age between Teresa and Morio is 71 - 59 = 12 years. When their daughter is born, Teresa is 38 - 12 = 26 years old.
So the answer is 26.

Question: Nora is selling muffins to raise $120 for an upcoming school trip. She has packaged the muffins in cases. Each case has three packs of muffins. Each pack has four muffins. If she prices each muffin at two dollars, how many cases of muffins must she sell to raise enough money for the trip?
Answer: Step-by-step reasoning process: If Nora prices each muffin at two dollars, she will sell 1 pack for 2 * 4 = 8 dollars. Since there are 3 packs to a case, the case will be sold for 3 * 8 = 24 dollars. It therefore means that she needs to sell 120 / 24 = 5 cases of muffins.
So the answer is 5.

Question: Carlos is doing his laundry. He needs to wash two loads, which takes 45 minutes per load. Then he can combine both loads and dry them, which takes 75 minutes. How long does his laundry take in total?
Answer: Step-by-step reasoning process: First multiply the number of loads by the time per load to find the washing time: 2 loads * 45 minutes / load = 90 minutes. Then add that time to the drying time to find the total laundry time: 90 minutes + 75 minutes = 165 minutes.
So the answer is 165.

Question: In a 50-question test with two marks for each question, Meghan learned that she scored 20 marks less than her friend Jose, who scored 40 more marks than their friend Alisson. Calculate the total score for the three in the test combined if Jose got 5 questions wrong?
Answer:
Step-by-step reasoning process: If you answer every question correctly in the test, the total possible marks are 50 * 2 = 100 marks. If Jose got five questions wrong, he lost 5 * 2 = 10 marks because each question has two marks. Therefore, Jose scored 100 - 10 = 90 marks on the test. Meghan scored 20 marks less than that which Jose got, a total of 90 - 20 = 70 marks. The total marks that Jose and Meghan scored in the test are 70 + 90 = 160. Alisson scored 90 - 40 = 50 marks in the examination, 40 marks less than that which Jose scored on the test. The total number of marks that the three scored in the test is 160 + 50 = 210.
So the answer is 210.
