[Question]Janet has 60 less than four times as many siblings as Masud. Carlos has 3/4 times as many siblings as Masud. If Masud has 60 siblings, how many more siblings does Janet have more than Carlos?
[Answer]If Masud has 60 siblings, and Carlos has 3 / 4 times as many siblings as Masud, Carlos has 3 / 4 * 60 = 45 siblings. Four times as many siblings as Masud has is 4 * 60 = 240. Janet has 60 less than four times as many siblings as Masud, a total of 240 - 60 = 180 siblings. The number of siblings Janet have more than Carlos is 180 - 45 = 135. The answer is 135.

Question: Jeremy decides to take Tylenol because of the pain he is experiencing. He decides to take 1000 mg every 6 hours for 2 weeks. How many pills do they take if they are each 500 mg?
