[Question]: Frank bakes two trays of cookies per day, for 6 days. Frank eats one cookie each day to make sure they taste good. Ted comes over on the sixth day and eats 4 cookies. If each tray makes 12 cookies, how many cookies are left when Ted leaves?
[Answer]: Frank bakes 2 * 12 = 24 cookies per day. Frank bakes a total of 24 * 6 = 144 cookies. Frank eats 1 * 6 = 6 cookies. After Ted leaves, there are 144 - 6 - 4 = 134.
So the answer is 134.

[Question]: Alexis is applying for a new job and bought a new set of business clothes to wear to the interview. She went to a department store with a budget of $200 and spent $30 on a button-up shirt, $46 on suit pants, $38 on a suit coat, $11 on socks, and $18 on a belt. She also purchased a pair of shoes, but lost the receipt for them. She has $16 left from her budget. How much did Alexis pay for the shoes?
[Answer]:
Let S be the amount Alexis paid for the shoes. She spent S + 30 + 46 + 38 + 11 + 18 = S + 143. She used all but $16 of her budget, so S + 143 = 200 - 16 = 184. Thus, Alexis paid S = 184 - 143 = $41 for the shoes.
So the answer is 41.
