The rooms are full so there are currently 10 rooms * 3 people = 30 people in the hotel. So the hotel hands out 30 people * 2 towels = 60 towels.
The answer: 60
Reverse engineering the question: A hotel has 10 rooms and is currently full. Each room holds a family of 3. If each person receives 2 towels, how many towels does the hotel hand out?


Reasoning and answer: Medication:5000(.50) = 2500. Overnight Stays:2500(.25) = 625. 2500 - 625 = 1875. Food:1875 - 175 = 1700$. Ambulance ride:1700$.
The answer: 1700
What was the question?
Question: Josephine receives a bill from the hospital for 5000$. 50 percent of the bill is for medication. 25 percent of the remaining bill is for overnight stays, and 175$ is for food. The rest of the bill is for the ambulance ride. How much did the ambulance ride cost?


A single watermelon would sell for $2 x 23 = $46. 60 watermelons would sell for $46 x 18 = $828.
The answer: 828
Reverse engineering the question: A watermelon weighs 23 pounds. If Farmer Kent sells his special watermelons for $2 a pound, how much money would he make for selling 18 watermelons of the same weight?


Reasoning and answer: The weight of soda was 6 * 12 = 72 ounces. It had to support the weight of 6 + 2 = 8 empty cans. The weight of the empty cans is 8 * 2 = 16 ounces. So it must support 72 + 16 = 88 ounces.
The answer: 88
What was the question?
Question: John builds a toy bridge to support various weights. It needs to support 6 cans of soda that have 12 ounces of soda. The cans weigh 2 ounces empty. He then also adds 2 more empty cans. How much weight must the bridge hold up?


He makes 50 * $.10 = $5 per hour. So he makes $5 * 24 = $120 per day. So he makes $120 * 30 = $3600 a month.
The answer: 3600
Reverse engineering the question: Jon runs a website where he gets paid for every person who visits. He gets paid $0.10 for every person who visits. Each hour he gets 50 visits. His website operates 24 hours a day. How many dollars does he make in a 30 day month?


Each trip, they add Caleb’s 7 gallons + Cynthia’s 8 gallons = 15 gallons. Since they are adding 15 gallons every trip, to fill the 105 - gallon pool, it would take 105 / 15 = 7 trips.
The answer: 7
Reverse engineering the question:
Caleb and Cynthia are filling up their inflatable pool with water using buckets. They fill their buckets at the spigot and carry them to the pool. Caleb can add 7 gallons from his bucket and Cynthia can add 8 gallons from her bucket each trip. It will take 105 gallons to fill the pool. How many trips will it take for Caleb and Cynthia to fill the pool with their buckets?
