Consider the Q and A. Q: A printing press is printing brochures. The press prints 20 single-page spreads, and twice as many double-page spreads. For each 4 pages printed for the spreads, the press prints a block of 4 ads, each of which take up a quarter of a page. The brochures can be arranged in any order as long as they are made up of 5 pages each. How many brochures is the printing press creating?
A: 25
What is the step-by-step reasoning process?
Step-by-step reasoning process: There are a total of 20 single - page spreads * 2 = 40 double - page spreads. As these are made up of 2 pages each, there are 40 double - page spreads * 2 pages = 80 pages in the double - page spreads. In total, there are 20 single - pages + 80 double - pages = 100 pages in the spreads. A block of ads is printed every 4 pages, so there will be 100 pages / 4 pages / block = 25 blocks of ads. This is a total of 25 blocks * 4 ads = 100 ads. As each ad takes up a quarter of a page, this must create an additional 100 ads * 0.25 = 25 pages. Therefore, the press has printed 100 pages from the spreads + 25 pages of ads = 125 pages. Since brochures are made up of 5 pages each, this creates a total of 125 pages / 5 = 25 brochures.

Consider the Q and A. Q: Saheed made four times as much money as Kayla. Kayla made $30 less than Vika. Vika made $84. How many dollars did Saheed make?
A: 216
What is the step-by-step reasoning process?
Step-by-step reasoning process: Kayla made $30 less than Vika = $84 - 30 = 54. Saheed made 4 * Kayla = 4 * 54 = 216.

Consider the Q and A. Q: A river is to be used for a boat race. If each boat is 3 feet across and they must have at least 2 feet between them or the riverbank, how many boats can race in a river that is 42 feet across?
A: 8
What is the step-by-step reasoning process?
Step-by-step reasoning process: Each boat will require 3 feet across to fit itself and 2 feet space on one side for a total of 2 + 3 = 5 feet per boat. The last boat will need an additional 2 feet space on its other side, so this 2 feet should be subtracted first from the 42 feet which leaves 42 - 2 = 40 feet. 5 feet per boat on the remaining 40 feet for a total of 40 / 5 = 8 boats.

Consider the Q and A. Q: Johann and two friends are to deliver 180 pieces of certified mail. His friends each deliver 41 pieces of mail. How many pieces of mail does Johann need to deliver?
A: 98
What is the step-by-step reasoning process?
Step-by-step reasoning process:
Friends = 41 * 2 = 82. Johann = 180 - 82 = 98. Johann must deliver 98 pieces of mail.
