Reasoning and answer: The total number of fruits that Kannon ate last is 3 apples + 1 banana + 4 oranges = 8. Since last night Kannon had 3 apples, today she'll eat 3 + 4 = 7 apples. She is also planning to eat 10 times as many bananas as she ate last night, a total of 1 * 10 = 10 bananas. Kannon will also eat twice as many oranges as apples she'll have today, which means she'll eat 7 * 2 = 14 oranges. Tonight Kannon will eat 14 oranges + 10 bananas + 7 apples = 31 fruits. In total, after tonight, Kannon would have eaten 31 + 8 = 39 fruits.
The answer: 39

In the beginning, Martha lost 18 / 2 = 9 crayons. So after she bought a set of new crayons, she has in total 9 + 20 = 29 crayons.
The answer: 29
Reverse engineering the question: Martha has 18 crayons. She lost half of them, so she bought a new set of 20 crayons. How many crayons in total does Martha have after the purchase?


Reasoning and answer: First find the total cost of the diamond earrings: $6,000 / earring * 2 earrings = $12,000. Then subtract the cost of the earrings and iPhone from the total cost of the bags to find the cost of all the scarves: $20,000 - $12,000 - $2,000 = $6,000. Then divide the total cost of the scarves by the cost per scarf to find the number of scarves: $6,000 / $1,500 / scarf = 4 scarves.
The answer: 4

Out of the 150 students, 100% - 60% = 40% are boys. So, there are 150 x 40 / 100 = 60 boys. Out of the 60 boys, 60 x 1 / 3 = 20 joined varsity clubs. Therefore, 60 - 20 = 40 boys did not join varsity clubs.
The answer: 40
Reverse engineering the question: Out of the 150 students, 60% are girls and the rest are boys. Only 1/3 of the boys joined varsity clubs. How many of the boys did not join varsity clubs?


Reasoning and answer: In the first round, Richard knocked down 70 + 15 = 85 pins. In the second round, Patrick knocked down 85 x 2 = 170 pins. In the second round, Richard knocked down 170 - 3 = 167 pins. In total, Patrick knocked down 70 + 170 = 240 pins. In total, Richard knocked down 85 + 167 = 252 pins. Richard knocked down 252 - 240 = 12 pins more than Patrick.
The answer: 12
