[Question]There were 100 jelly beans in a bag to be given away on Halloween. Out of the 40 children taking part in the Halloween celebration, 80% were allowed to draw jelly beans from the bag. Each child drew two jelly beans out of the bag. How many jelly beans remained in the bag after the children took their share?
[Answer]Out of the 40 children taking part in the Halloween celebration, 80% were allowed to draw jelly beans from the bag, a total of 80 / 100 * 40 = 32 children. If each of the 32 children drew two jelly beans out of the bag, they drew a total of 32 * 2 = 64 jelly beans from the bag. The total number of jelly beans that remained is 100 - 64 = 36. The answer is 36.
Q: To make a cherry pie, Veronica needs 3 pounds of pitted cherries. There are 80 single cherries in one pound of cherries.  It takes 10 minutes to pit 20 cherries. How many hours will it take Veronica to pit all the cherries?
A: There are 80 cherries in a pound and she needs 3 pounds to make a pie so she needs 80 * 3 = 240 cherries. It takes her 10 minutes to pit a unit of 20 cherries. She has 240 / 20 = 12 units of cherries to pit. It takes 10 minutes to pit a unit of cherries and she has 12 units so it will take her 10 * 12 = 120 minutes. 60 minutes are in 1 hour and it takes her 120 minutes so that’s 120 / 60 = 2 hours. The answer is 2.
Question: In one hour, Addison mountain's temperature will decrease to 3/4 of its temperature. If the current temperature of the mountain is 84 degrees, what will the temperature decrease by?

[Question]John runs a telethon to raise money. For the first 12 hours, he generates $5000 per hour. The remaining 14 hours, he generates 20% more per hour. How much total money does he make?
[Answer]He gets 12 * 5000 = $60000 for the first 12 hours. For the next 14 hours, he gets 5000 * .2 = $1000 more per hour. So he gets 5000 + 1000 = $6000 per hour. So he gets 6000 * 14 = $84000. So in total, he makes 84000 + 60000 = $144,000. The answer is 144000.
