Question: On Monday, while at work on the farm, Jeremy picks 100 oranges. On Tuesday, together with his brother, they pick thrice as much. On Wednesday he feels tired and is only able to pick 70 oranges. What's the total number of oranges they have?

Q: Oliver has 10 $20 and 3 $5 bills. William has 15 $10 and 4 $5 bills. How much more money does Oliver have than William?
A: Oliver's $20 bills amount to $20 x 10 = $200. Oliver's $5 bills amount to $5 x 3 = $15. So, Oliver has a total of $200 + $15 = $215. William's $10 bills amount to $10 x 15 = $150. William's $5 bills amount to $5 x 4 = $20. So, William has a total of $150 + $20 = $170. Therefore, Oliver has $215 - $170 = $45 more than William. The answer is 45.
