Reasoning and answer: Bailey got 8 + 2 = 10 dog supplies. After adding the rawhide bones, she had 10 + 10 = 20 dog supplies. She needed to split the charges across 4 cards, so each charge had 20 * .25 = 5 items.
The answer: 5

Reasoning and answer: Her first drink consumed 1 / 4 * 4 = 1 liter of water. Thus there were 4 - 1 = 3 liters of water left in the bottle. Next, she drank 2 / 3 * 3 = 2 liters. Thus, there were 3 - 2 = 1 liters remaining.
The answer: 1

Question: Kimberly went hiking and took a 4-liter bottle full of water with her. The first time she drank from it, she consumed a quarter of the water in the bottle. Later on, she drank 2/3rd of the remaining water. How much water is left in the bottle (in liters)?


The bus to Ryan’s work takes 10 minutes longer than his bike ride, so it takes 10 + 30 = 40 minutes. Ryan takes the bus 3 times a week, so the bus rides take 40 * 3 = 120 minutes a week. His friend cuts two - thirds off his biking time, which is 2 / 3 * 30 = 20 minutes a week. This means his friend takes 30 - 20 = 10 minutes to drive him. Therefore, Ryan spends 120 + 10 + 30 = 160 minutes every week commuting to work.
The answer: 160
Reverse engineering the question: To get to work, Ryan bikes one day a week takes the bus three times a week and gets a ride from a friend once a week. It takes him thirty minutes to bike to work. The bus takes ten minutes longer since it stops at every bus stop for other passengers. His friend driving him is the fastest and cuts two-thirds off his biking time. How many minutes does he spend every week commuting to work?


Reasoning and answer: The number of rabbits was 80 + 34 = 114. The total number of rabbits and antelopes is 114 + 80 = 194. The number of hyenas was 42 fewer than the combined number of antelopes and rabbits, which is 194 - 42 = 152. The number of wild dogs was 50 more than the number of hyenas, that is 152 + 50 = 202. The number of leopards is 1 / 2 * 114 = 57. The total number of animals Josie saw is 57 + 202 + 152 + 114 + 80 = 605.
The answer: 605

Question: Josie and her family went on a safari and had an exciting time watching different animals grazing and playing together. She decided to count each animal she saw and calculated their total number. She counted 80 antelopes, 34 more rabbits than antelopes, 42 fewer hyenas than the total number of antelopes and rabbits combined, 50 more wild dogs than hyenas, and the number of leopards was half the number of rabbits. What the total number of animals that Josie counted?


Reasoning and answer: Rose cooked 10 x 9 / 10 = 9 kilograms of rice in the morning. She had 10 - 9 = 1 kilogram of rice left then. One kilogram is equal to 1 x 1000 = 1000 grams. So, Rose cooked 1000 x 1 / 4 = 250 grams of rice in the evening. Therefore, she has 1000 - 250 = 750 grams of rice left.
The answer: 750
What was the question?
Question:
Rose had 10 kilograms of rice. She cooked 9/10 kilograms in the morning and 1/4 of the remaining in the evening. How many grams of rice did she have left?
