Answer this question:At the salad bar, Grandma put three mushrooms on her salad. She also added twice as many cherry tomatoes as mushrooms, 4 times as many pickles as cherry tomatoes, and 4 times as many bacon bits as pickles. If one third of the bacon bits were red, than how many red bacon bits did Grandma put on her salad?
Twice as many tomatoes as mushrooms is 3 * 2 = 6 tomatoes. Four times as many pickles as tomatoes is 4 * 6 = 24 pickles. Four times as many bacon bits as pickles is 24 * 4 = 96 bacon bits. One third of 96 is 96 / 3 = 32 red bacon bits.
The answer is 32.

Answer this question:Haley grows at the rate of 3 inches every year. If she is currently 20 inches tall, what will be her height after 10 years?
After 10 years, growing at the rate of 3 inches every year, Haley will have grown by 3 * 10 = 30 inches. If she is currently 20 inches tall, her height after 10 years will be 20 + 30 = 50 inches.

Answer this question:Police officer A patrols 36 streets in 4 hours. His colleague, officer B, patrols 55 streets in 5 hours. How many streets will both officers patrol in one hour?
Officer A patrols 36 streets / 4 hours = 9 streets / hour. Officer B patrols 55 streets / 5 hours = 11 streets / hour. Together officer A and B patrol 9 streets / hour + 11 streets / hour = 20 streets / hour.
