Question: Debby and Maggie agreed to share a sum of money so that Debby takes 25% and Maggie takes the rest. If Maggie's share is $4,500, how much did they share?
Answer: Step-by-step reasoning process: If Debby's share is 25% and Maggie takes the rest, then Maggie's share is 100% - 25% = 75%. 75% of the total amount is Maggie's share = total amount * (75 / 100) = $4500. Multiplying both sides of the equation by 100 / 75 gives the total amount = (100 / 75) * $4500 = $6000.
So the answer is 6000.

Question: Chef Michel made shepherd's pie cut into 4 pieces and chicken pot pie cut into 5 pieces for the lunch crowd. 52 customers ordered slices of shepherd's pie and 80 customers ordered slices of chicken pot pie. How many total pies did Chef Michel sell?

Question: Mark has an egg farm. His farm supplies one store with 5 dozen eggs and another store with 30 eggs each day. How many eggs does he supply these two stores in a week?
Answer: Step-by-step reasoning process: Since a dozen is equal to 12, then Mark's egg farm supplies one store with 5 x 12 = 60 eggs each day. It supplies the two stores with a total of 60 + 30 = 90 eggs each day. Therefore, the egg farm supplies the two stores with 90 x 7 = 630 eggs in a week.
So the answer is 630.

Question: Gunther just financed a John Deere tractor through the dealership. If his monthly payment is $150.00 a month, for 5 years, with no interest, how much did he finance the tractor for?
Answer:
Step-by-step reasoning process: There are 12 months in 1 year and his loan is for 5 years so that's 12 * 5 = 60 months. His monthly payment is $150.00 and he pays this for 60 months so his loan for the tractor was 150 * 60 = $9,000.00.
So the answer is 9000.
