Q: Brianna started out with a bag of 24 marbles. She lost four marbles through a hole in the bag. Then, she gave away twice as many marbles as she had lost through the hole in the bag. Finally, her dog ate half as many marbles as Brianna had lost through the hole in the bag. How many marbles did Brianna have remaining?
A: 10
Step-by-step reasoning process: Brianna gave away twice as many marbles as she had lost, or a total of 2 * 4 = 8 marbles. Her dog ate half as many marbles as Brianna had lost through the hole in the bag, or 4 / 2 = 2 marbles. If she started with 24 marbles, then the number of marbles remaining is 24 - 4 - 8 - 2 = 10 marbles.


Q: Anna's mom gave her $10.00 to buy anything she wanted from the candy store. Anna bought 3 packs of chewing gum for $1.00 each, 5 chocolate bars at $1 each and 2 large candy canes for $0.50 each. How much money did Anna have left?
A: 1
Step-by-step reasoning process: Anna bought 3 packs of chewing gum that were $1 each for a total of 3 * 1 = $3. Anna bought 5 chocolate bars that were $1 each for a total of 5 * 1 = $5. Anna bought 2 large candy canes that were $.50 each for a total of 2 * .50 = $1. The total amount spent was $3 + $5 + $1 = $9.00. Anna had $10 to start and spent $9.00 so she had $10 - $9.00 = $1.00 left.


Q: Sidney does 20 jumping jacks on Monday, 36 on Tuesday, 40 on Wednesday, and 50 on Thursday. Brooke does three times as many jumping jacks as Sidney. How many jumping jacks did Brooke do?
A: 438
Step-by-step reasoning process: Sidney does 20 on Monday + 36 on Tuesday + 40 on Wednesday + 50 on Thursday = 146 jumping jacks. Brooke does 3 x 146 = 438 jumping jacks.


Q: If one fourth of the engines are defective, and there are 5 batches of 80 engines each. How many engines are not defective?
A: 300
Step-by-step reasoning process: There are 80 * 5 = 400 engines in total. 400 / 4 = 100 of the engines are defective. 400 - 100 = 300 of the engines are not defective.
