[Question]Emma got $2000 from the bank. She bought $400 of furniture and gave 3/4 of the rest to her friend Anna. How much is left with Emma?
[Answer]Emma had $2000 - $400 = $1600 left after buying furniture. Emma gave Anna 3 / 4 * $1600 = $1200. So, Emma is left with $1600 - $1200 = $400. The answer is 400.
Q: Mr. and Mrs. Hugo went on a road trip. On the first day, they traveled 200 miles. On the second day, they traveled 3/4 as far. On the third day, they traveled 1/2 as many miles as the first two days combined. How many miles did they travel for 3 days?
A: On the second day, Mr. and Mrs. Hugo traveled 200 x 3 / 4 = 150 miles. They traveled a total of 200 + 150 = 350 miles in the first two days. On the third day, they traveled 350 x 1 / 2 = 175 miles. So, Mr. and Mrs. Hugo traveled a total of 200 + 150 + 175 = 525 miles for 3 days. The answer is 525.
Question: Jim collects model cars, and he has 301 models total. Jim has 4 times as many Buicks as Fords, and 3 more than twice the number of Fords than Chevys. How many Buicks does Jim have?
Answer: Let x represent the number of Chevys. Fords:3 + 2x. Buicks:4(3 + 2x) = 12 + 8x. Total:x + 3 + 2x + 12 + 8x = 301. 11x + 15 = 301. 11x = 286. x = 26. Buicks:12 + 8(26) = 220. The answer is 220.
[Question]At the salad bar, Grandma put three mushrooms on her salad. She also added twice as many cherry tomatoes as mushrooms, 4 times as many pickles as cherry tomatoes, and 4 times as many bacon bits as pickles. If one third of the bacon bits were red, than how many red bacon bits did Grandma put on her salad?
[Answer]Twice as many tomatoes as mushrooms is 3 * 2 = 6 tomatoes. Four times as many pickles as tomatoes is 4 * 6 = 24 pickles. Four times as many bacon bits as pickles is 24 * 4 = 96 bacon bits. One third of 96 is 96 / 3 = 32 red bacon bits. The answer is 32.
[Question]Ian won $100 in the lottery. He decided to use the money to pay off debts. He paid $20 to Colin. He then paid twice as much to Helen, as he had paid to Colin. Then finally, he paid half as much to Benedict, as he had paid to Helen. How much money, in dollars, does he have left after paying off debts?
[Answer]
Starting with $100, he paid $20 to Colin, leaving him with $100 - $20 = $80. Twice as much as $20 is 2 * $20 = $40. Thus, he paid $40 to Helen, leaving him with $80 - $40 = $40. Half as much to Benedict as he had paid to Helen is $40 / 2 = $20. Thus, he paid $20 to Benedict, leaving him with $40 - $20 = $20 after paying off all debts. The answer is 20.
