Since Pat's Ark & Athletic Wear store has 200 pools, Pat's Pool Supply has 3 * 200 = 600 swimming pools. Together, they have 600 + 200 = 800 swimming pools.
The answer: 800
Reverse engineering the question: Pat's Pool Supply has three times as many swimming pools as Pat's Ark & Athletic Wear store. If Pat's Ark & Athletic Wear store has 200 pools, how many pools do they have in total?


Reasoning and answer: He walks 200 meters first then he returns to the house. So it makes 200 m + 200 m = 400 m. The city center is 500 meters away from his house so the total distance is 400 m + 500 m = 900 m.
The answer: 900

Question: The distance between Robin's house and the city center is 500 meters. He leaves the house to go to the city center. After he walks 200 meters he realizes that he forgot his bag. So he returns to his house, then goes back to the city center. How many meters does he walk in total?


If Lou runs 3 miles during his workout on a track that is 1 / 4 miles long, then he circles the track 3 / (1 / 4) = 12 times. If Rosie runs twice as fast as Lou, then over the same time period, she runs 3 * 2 = 6 miles. If Rosie runs 6 miles on the 1 / 4 mile track, then she circles the track 6 / (1 / 4) = 24 times.
The answer: 24
Reverse engineering the question: Every day, Lou works out by running three miles on a circular track that is one-quarter of a mile long. His wife, Rosie, also runs on the same track at the same time as her husband, but she runs at twice the speed of her husband. During their workout, how many times does Rosie circle the track?


Reasoning and answer: After the first 6 miles, he rowed 15 miles more, reaching 6 + 15 = 21 miles. After resting, he adds 18 miles more, which is 18 + 21 = 39 miles.
The answer: 39

Question: Emerson and his friends love rowing and don't miss the sport on weekends. Starting in the morning, Emerson rowed and was 6 miles away from his starting point on a particular weekend. He continued for another 15 miles at a constant speed, only stopping for a while for rest before covering the remaining 18 miles. What's the total distance covered by Emerson on his trip?


At the intermediate stop, 58 - 28 = 30 students entered the bus before it stopped at the intersection. 40% of the number of students who entered the bus at the intermediate stop is 40 / 100 * 30 = 12.
The answer: 12
Reverse engineering the question: There were 28 students inside a bus before stopping at an intersection. After stopping at an intersection, there were 58 students on the bus. What's 40% of the number of students who entered the bus at the intermediate stop?


First find the total cost of the color cartridges: $32 / cartridge * 3 cartridges = $96. Then add the cost of the black - and - white cartridge to find the total cost: $96 + $27 = $123.
The answer: 123
Reverse engineering the question:
To get the printer to work, Jerry needs to add a black-and-white cartridge and three color cartridges. If each color cartridge costs $32 and each black-and-white cartridge costs $27, how much does he pay total?
