Question: Jame gets a raise to $20 per hour and works 40 hours a week. His old job was $16 an hour for 25 hours per week. How much more money does he make per year in his new job than the old job if he works 52 weeks a year?
Answer: He makes 20 * 40 = $800 per week. He used to make 16 * 25 = $400 per week. So his raise was 800 - 400 = $400 per week. So he makes 400 * 52 = $20,800 per year more. The answer is 20800.

Q: Stormi is saving up to buy a bicycle. She washes 3 cars for $10 each. She mows 2 lawns for $13 each. If the bicycle she wants costs $80, how much more money does Stormi need to make to afford the bicycle?
A: The total amount of money from washing cars is 3 * $10 = $30. The total amount of money from mowing lawns 2 * $13 = $26. The total amount of money Stormi makes is $30 + $26 = $56. Stormi still needs to make $80 - $56 = $24. The answer is 24.
Question: Marta is arranging floral centerpieces for a reception party. Each arrangement needs to have 8 roses,12 daisies, 3 snapdragons and twice as many lilies. The reception will have 10 tables. How many flowers will she need in total to fill this order?
Answer: She needs twice as many lilies as the 3 snapdragons in the arrangement so she needs 2 * 3 = 6 lilies. She needs 8 roses, 12 daisies, 3 snapdragons and 6 lilies for a total of 8 + 12 + 3 + 6 = 29 flowers per arrangement. She needs 29 flowers per each of the 10 tables for a total of 29 * 10 = 290 flowers. The answer is 290.
[Question]Henry took 9 pills a day for 14 days. Of these 9 pills, 4 pills cost $1.50 each, and the other pills each cost $5.50 more. How much did he spend in total on the pills?
[Answer]There were 9 - 4 = 5 other pills. Each of the other pills cost 1.50 + 5.50 = 7 dollars each. The 5 pills cost a total of 7 * 5 = 35 dollars. The first 4 pills cost 1.50 * 4 = 6 dollars in total. Henry spent a total of 35 + 6 = 41 dollars. The answer is 41.
[Question]Jason has six fish in his aquarium. He realizes that every day the number of fish doubles. On the third day he takes out one-third of the fish. On the fifth day he takes out one-fourth of the fish. On the seventh day he adds 15 more fish. How many fish in total does he have?
[Answer]
Start by finding how many fish were in the aquarium on the third day 6 * 2 * 2 = 24. On day three, Jason took out one - third of the fish 24 / 3 = 8. So at the end of day three, he has 24 - 8 = 16 fish. On day five he has 16 * 2 * 2 = 64 fish, but he takes out one - fourth. So he took out 64 / 4 = 16 fishes. So at the end of day five, he has 64 - 16 = 48 fish. On day seven he has 48 * 2 * 2 = 192 fish. He adds in 15 more, so he has 192 + 15 = 207 fish in total. The answer is 207.
