Question: Corey downloaded two movie series from his Netflix account with 12 and 14 seasons per series, respectively. However, in the week, his computer got a mechanical failure, and he lost two episodes from each season for both series. If each season in the movie series that Corey downloaded had 16 episodes, how many episodes remained after the computer's mechanical failure?
Answer with step-by-step thinking: In the first movie series with 12 seasons, after the mechanical failure, the number of episodes that Corey lost is 2 * 12 = 24. Originally, the movie series with 12 seasons had 12 * 16 = 192 episodes. After the mechanical failure, Corey had 192 - 24 = 168 episodes remaining in the first movie series. Similarly, the 14 season movie series also had 14 * 2 = 28 lost after the computer's mechanical failure. Originally, the movie series with 14 seasons has 14 * 16 = 224 episodes. The mechanical failure of the computer reduced the number of episodes in the 14 season movie series to 224 - 28 = 196. After the loss, Corey had 196 + 168 = 364 episodes remaining from the two movie series he had downloaded.
So the answer is 364.


Question: In the cafeteria, Athena wants to buy snacks for her friends. She bought 3 sandwiches at $3 each and 2 fruit drinks at $2.5 each. How much did she spend in all?
Answer with step-by-step thinking: Athena spent 3 x $3 = $9 on sandwiches. She spent 2 x $2.5 = $5 on fruits drinks. Therefore, Athena spent $9 + $5 = $14 in all.
So the answer is 14.


Question: Terese thinks that running various distances throughout the week can make one healthy. On Monday, she runs 4.2 miles; Tuesday, 3.8 miles; Wednesday, 3.6 miles; and on Thursday, 4.4 miles. Determine the average distance Terese runs on each of the days she runs.
Answer with step-by-step thinking:
The total distance Terese runs is 4.2 + 3.8 + 4.4 + 3.6 = 16 miles. Therefore, she runs with an average distance of 16 / 4 = 4 miles.
So the answer is 4.
