Rockefeller Army Base has 3000 more than twice as many guns as Grenada Army Base, 400 less than thrice as many war tractors as Grenada Army Base, and 30 times as many soldier uniforms as Grenada Army Base reserved for its national protection. How many total war supplies does Rockefeller have if Grenada's war supplies are equally divided among the 6000 war supplies they have in total? Give the rationale and then the answer.
Let's think step by step. For each component, Grenada Army Base has 6000 / 3 = 2000 each of guns, war tractors, and soldier uniforms. Rockefeller Army Base has 3000 + 2 * 2000 = 7000 guns. Rockefeller Army Base has 3 * 2000 - 400 = 5600 war tractors. Rockefeller Army Base has 30 * 2000 = 60000 soldier uniforms. The total war supplies Rockefeller Army Base has reserved are 60000 + 5600 + 7000 = 72600 war supplies for its national protection.. The answer is: 72600.

Students at Highridge High earn 2 points for each correct answer during a quiz bowl If a student correctly answers all the questions in a round, the student is awarded an additional 4 point bonus. They played a total of five rounds each consisting of five questions. If James only missed one question, how many points did he get? Give the rationale and then the answer.
Let's think step by step. If James only missed one question in all five rounds of five questions, he correctly answered 5 * 5 - 1 = 24 questions. Before the bonus, James earned 24 correct answers * 2 points / answer = 48 points. Since missing one question would only disqualify him from receiving a bonus in one round, he would earn a bonus for 5 - 1 = 4 rounds. He should expect a bonus of 4 rounds * 4 points / round = 16 points. Including his bonus, James scored a total of 48 + 16 = 64 points.. The answer is: 66.

Carter is twice as tall as his 24” tall dog. Betty is 12” shorter than Carter. How tall is Betty in feet? Give the rationale and then the answer.
Let's think step by step. Carter is twice as tall as 24” dog so he is 2 * 24 = 48”. Betty is 12” shorter than Carter so Betty is 48 - 12 = 36” tall. 12" is the same as 1 foot so Betty is 36 / 12 = 3 feet tall.. The answer is: 3.
