Question: Josue planted a tree in his backyard that grows at the rate of 2 feet per week. If the tree is currently 10 feet tall, what would be the tree's total height after 4 months (assuming each month is 4 weeks long)?
Answer: Since a month has four weeks, the tree will increase its height by 2 feet for 4 * 4 = 16 weeks after four months of growing. Since the tree grows at 2 feet per week, after 16 weeks, the tree would have increased its height by 2 * 16 = 32 feet. If the tree is currently 10 feet tall, its height after four months will be 10 + 32 = 42 feet. The answer is 42.
[Question]Jade had $38 and her sister Julia had half as much money she had. On New Year's eve, their aunt gave each of them an equal amount of money so that they had a total of $97. How much did their aunt give each of them?
[Answer]Julia had $38 / 2 = $19. Before their aunt gave them money, Jade and Julia had a total of $38 + $19 = $57. So, the total amount that their aunt gave them was $97 - $57 = $40. Thus, each of them was given $40 / 2 = $20. The answer is 20.
Q: Roland needs a length of thread to complete an exercise. He has a 12cm long thread but his teacher says he needs an additional three-quarters of what he has. What is the total length required?
A: An additional three - quarters of 12cm is needed which is 12cm * (3 / 4) = 9cm. The total length required is 12cm + 9cm = 21cm. The answer is 21.
Question: Julia's internet speed is 20 MBps (megabytes per second). How many songs she can download in half an hour if the size per song is 5MB?
Answer: 1 hour has 60 minutes, therefore 1 / 2 hour has 1 / 2 * 60 = 30 minutes. 1 minute has 60 seconds, therefore 30 minutes has 30 * 60 = 1800 seconds. If Julia's internet speed is 20MBps and each song has a size of 5MB, then it would take 5 / 20 = 1 / 4 seconds to download one song. If it takes 1 / 4 seconds to download 1 song, then in 1800 seconds, Julia could download 1800 / (1 / 4) = 1800 * 4 = 7200 songs. The answer is 7200.
[Question]In four years, Peter will be twice as old as Harriet. If Peter's age is currently half of his mother's age, who is 60, how old is Harriet now?
[Answer]If Peter's age is currently half of his mother's age, who is 60, Peter is 1 / 2 * 60 = 30 years old. In four years, Peter will be 30 + 4 = 34 years old. Since Peter's age in four years will be twice Harriet's age, Harriet will be 34 / 2 = 17 years old in four years. Currently, Harriet is 17 - 4 = 13 years old. The answer is 13.
[Question]Bonnie and Samuel went to the market together. Bonnie bought 8 apples. Samuel bought 20 more apples than Bonnie. Samuel then ate half of them and used 1/7 of them to make apple pie. How many apples does Samuel have left?
[Answer]
Samuel bought 20 + 8 = 28 apples. Samuel ate 28 / 2 = 14 apples. Samuel used 28 / 7 = 4 to make apple pie. Samuel has 28 - 14 - 4 = 10 apples left. The answer is 10.
