Question: Happy Island has 60 turtles. This means there are 10 more than 2 times as many turtles on Happy Island as on Lonely Island. How many turtles are there on Lonely Island?
Answer: After subtracting 10 from the number of turtles on Happy Island, we get 60 - 10 = 50 turtles. Dividing this number by two, we find that the number of turtles on Lonely Island is 50 / 2 = 25 turtles. The answer is 25.
[Question]Darren bought 4 boxes of crackers. Each box contained 24 crackers. If Calvin bought one box less than twice as many boxes of crackers as Darren, how many crackers did they buy altogether?
[Answer]If Darren bought 4 boxes of crackers, each containing 24 crackers, the total number of crackers that Darren bought is 24 * 4 = 96. Twice as many boxes of crackers as Darren bought is 2 * 4 = 8. If Calvin bought one box less than twice as many boxes of crackers as Darren, then Calvin bought 8 - 1 = 7 boxes of crackers. The total number of crackers that Calvin bought is 7 * 24 = 168. Together, Darren and Clavin bought 168 + 96 = 264 crackers. The answer is 264.
Q: Dale and Andrew had breakfast at a cafe. A slice of toast costs £1, and eggs cost £3 each. Dale had 2 slices of toast and 2 eggs. Andrew had 1 slice of toast and 2 eggs. How much did their breakfast cost?
A: The cost of Dale's toast is 2 × $1 = $2. The cost of Andrew's toast is 1 × $1 = $1. The cost of Dale's eggs is 2 × $3 = $6. The cost of Andrew's eggs is 2 × $3 = $6. Their breakfast cost $2 + $1 + $6 + $6 = $15. The answer is 15.
Question: Cally and Danny washed their clothes. Cally has 10 white shirts, 5 colored shirts, 7 pairs of shorts, and 6 pairs of pants, while Danny has 6 white shirts, 8 colored shirts, 10 shorts, and 6 pairs of pants. How many clothes did they wash?
Answer: They washed 10 + 6 = 16 white shirts. They washede 5 + 8 = 13 colored shirts. They washed 7 + 10 = 17 shorts. They washed 6 + 6 = 12 pants. Therefore, Cally and Danny washed a total of 16 + 13 + 17 + 12 = 58 clothes. The answer is 58.
[Question]Frank has 7 one-dollar bills, 4 five-dollar bills, 2 ten-dollar bills, and 1 twenty-dollar bill. He goes to buy peanuts, which cost $3 a pound. He buys what he wants and has $4 in change. He plans to eat the peanuts all in one week. How many pounds does he eat on average per day?
[Answer]Frank has $7 in one dollar bills because 7 x 1 = 7. Frank has $20 in five dollar bills because 4 x 5 = 20. Frank has $20 in ten dollar bills because 2 x 10 = 20. Frank has 67 dollars in total because 7 + 20 + 20 + 20 = 67. Frank spent $63 because 67 - 4 = 63. Frank bought 21 pounds of peanuts because 63 / 3 = 21. He eats 3 pounds a day on average because 21 / 7 = 3. The answer is 3.
[Question]Brad's car broke down on an isolated road. At the time, Brad was traveling with Jim and Marcus. So, the three decided to push the car back into town, which was 10 miles away. For the first three miles, Brad steered as Jim and Marcus pushed at a speed of 6 miles per hour. Then, for the next 3 miles, Jim steered, as Brad and Marcus pushed at a speed of 3 miles per hour. For the last four miles, Marcus steered as Brad and Jim pushed at a speed of 8 miles per hour. How long did it take, in hours, to push the car back to town?
[Answer]
Three miles at 6 miles per hour is 3 / 6 = 1 / 2 hours. Then, 3 miles at 3 miles per hour is 3 / 3 = 1 hour. The last 4 miles at 8 miles per hour is 4 / 8 = 1 / 2 hour. In total, it took them 1 / 2 + 1 + 1 / 2 = 2 hours to push the car back to town. The answer is 2.
