[Question]Mitch made 20 macarons. Joshua made 6 more macarons than Mitch but half as many macarons as Miles. Renz made 1 fewer than 3/4 as many macarons as Miles. If they will combine their macarons to give them to the kids on the street, how many kids would receive 2 macarons each?
[Answer]Joshua made 20 + 6 = 26 macarons. Miles made 26 x 2 = 52 macarons. Three - fourths of Miles' macarons is 52 x 3 / 4 = 39. So Renz made 39 - 1 = 38 macarons. The four of them have a total of 20 + 26 + 52 + 38 = 136 macarons combined. Thus, 136 / 2 = 68 kids would receive 2 macarons each. The answer is 68.

[Question]A dragon hoards jewels and gold in its cave. A jealous king snuck in and stole three prize jewels. The dragon burned him to a crisp and stole back its jewels, along with twice as many of the king’s crown jewels from his crown that melted in the dragon’s fire. The new jewels were a third of the number of jewels the dragon had owned before. How many jewels did the dragon own in the end?
[Answer]The dragon stole 2 * 3 = 6 of the king’s crown jewels. The dragon owned 6 * 3 = 18 jewels before the theft. Thus, the dragon owned 18 + 6 = 24 jewels in the end. The answer is 24.

[Question]Jerry is sweeping up pieces of broken glass in the parking lot. He sweeps up 20 amber pieces, 35 green pieces, and some clear pieces. If the green pieces are 25% of the total glass he sweeps up, how many pieces were clear?
[Answer]First find the total number of glass pieces Jerry sweeps up: 35 green pieces / .25 = 140 pieces. Then subtract the number of pieces of other colors: 140 pieces - 20 pieces - 35 pieces = 85 pieces. The answer is 85.

[Question]At a university there are 1800 students. 30% of all the students are from other countries. Starting next semester, 200 new foreign students will begin studying at this University. How many foreign students will then study at the University if all other students continue to study?
[Answer]
In the beginning, there are 30 / 100 * 1800 students = 540 foreign students. In the next semester, there are going to be 540 foreign students + 200 foreign students = 740 foreign students in total. The answer is 740.
