Question: There are 40 more buyers in the grocery store today than yesterday. There were half the number of buyers yesterday as there were the day before, and the day before had 50 buyers. Nobody visited the store on more than one day. What's the total number of buyers who've visited the store in the three days?
Answer: If yesterday the number of buyers was half the number of buyers the day before, then yesterday there were 1 / 2 * 50 = 25 buyers. Today has 40 more buyers than yesterday, so there were 40 + 25 = 65 buyers today. The total number of buyers in the store for the three days will be 65 + 25 + 50 = 140 buyers. The answer is 140.
Q: A family of 12 monkeys collected 10 piles of bananas. 6 piles had 9 hands, with each hand having 14 bananas, while the remaining piles had 12 hands, with each hand having 9 bananas. How many bananas would each monkey get if they divide the bananas equally amongst themselves?
A:
The first 6 bunches had 6 x 9 x 14 = 756 bananas. There were 10 - 6 = 4 remaining bunches. The 4 remaining bunches had 4 x 12 x 9 = 432 bananas. All together, there were 756 + 432 = 1188 bananas. Each monkey would get 1188 / 12 = 99 bananas. The answer is 99.
