Q: A tomato plant has 100 tomatoes. Jane picks 1/4 of that number for use in their house. After a week, she goes back and picks 20 more tomatoes, and the following week picks twice that number. What's the total number of fruits remaining on the tomato plant?
A:
When she picks 1 / 4 of the number of tomatoes, she goes home with 1 / 4 * 100 = 25 tomatoes. The total number of tomatoes remaining will be 100 - 25 = 75 tomatoes. After picking 20 more tomatoes the following week, the number of tomatoes remaining is 75 - 20 = 55 tomatoes. The next week she picks twice the number she picked the previous week, that is 20 * 2 = 40 tomatoes. The total number of tomatoes remaining after the final picking is 55 - 40 = 15 tomatoes. The answer is 15.
