Come up with a question and reasoning that would justify this answer: 17
Question and rationale: The question is: The swimming club went to a swim meet in another town. They took 2 cars and 3 vans. There were 5 people in each car and 3 people in each van. Each car can hold a maximum of 6 people and each van can hold a maximum of 8 people. How many more people could have ridden with the swim team?
Step-by-step reasoning process: The available number of people in each car is 6 * 2 cars = 12 people. The available number of people in each van is 8 * 3 vans = 24 people. The total number of people that could go with the team is 12 people + 24 people = 36 people. The team took with them 2 cars * 5 people = 10 people. The team also took 3 vans * 3 people = 9 people. The team brought 10 people + 9 people = 19 people. The team could bring an additional 36 people - 19 people = 17 people.

Question and rationale: The question is: Sarah wants to start a cupcake business and was approved for a business loan. The loan has 0% interest if she pays the entire amount back in 5 years, which she decides to do. If she put $10,000 down as a down payment and her monthly payments are $600.00, how much was her loan for (including the down payment)?
Step-by-step reasoning process: To avoid interest she'll make payments for 5 years. There are 12 months in 1 year so that's 5 * 12 = 60 months. Each monthly payment is $600.00 and she'll pay that for 60 months for a total of 600 * 60 = $36,000. She also put $10,000 down as a down payment and her monthly payments came out to $36,000 so her loan was for 10000 + 36000 = $46,000.

Question and rationale: The question is: Caleb picked a handful of dandelion puffs. He gave 3 to his mom, another 3 to his sister, 5 to his grandmother, and 2 to his dog. Then, he divided the remaining dandelion puffs equally among his 3 friends. How many dandelion puffs did each friend receive if he originally picked 40 dandelion puffs?
Step-by-step reasoning process: Caleb was left with 40 - 3 - 3 - 5 - 2 = 27 dandelion puffs to give to his friends. They each received 27 / 3 = 9 dandelion puffs.

Question and rationale:
The question is: It takes David 10 minutes to wash 4 windows. David's house has 64 windows. How many minutes will it take David to wash all of the windows?
Step-by-step reasoning process: It takes 10 minutes to wash 4 windows and he has 64 windows so that breaks down to 64 / 4 = 16 units. It takes 10 minutes to wash a unit of windows and he has 16 units so 10 * 16 = 160 minutes.
