[Question]Mary and Rose went shopping to buy presents. They spent the same amount. Mary bought two pairs of sunglasses for $50 each and a pair of jeans for $100. Rose bought a pair of shoes at $150 and two decks of basketball cards. How much did one deck of basketball cards cost?
[Answer]Two pairs of sunglasses costs 2 x $50 = $100. So, Mary spent $100 + $100 = $200. Thus, two decks of basketball cards costs $200 - $150 = $50. Therefore, one deck of basketball cards costs $50 / 2 = $25. The answer is 25.

[Question]Jenny's local library received 50 visitors on Monday. On Tuesday, the library received twice that number. On the remaining days of the week, an average of 20 visitors went to the library. What's the total number of visitors who went to the library that week?
[Answer]On Monday, there were 50 visitors. On Tuesday, there were twice as many, so 2 * 50 = 100 visitors. The total number of visitors after Tuesday will be 100 + 50 = 150 visitors. For the remaining 5 days, an average of 20 visitors attended, giving a total of 5 * 20 = 100 visitors. The total number of visitors who visited the library for the week was 100 + 150 = 250 visitors. The answer is 250.

A: First find the number of votes for the unicorn cake: 7 votes * 3 = 21 votes. Then find the number of votes for the dragon cake: 25 votes + 7 votes = 32 votes. Then add the number of votes for each cake to find the total number of votes: 21 votes + 32 votes + 7 votes = 60 votes. The answer is 60.
