Question: At the same store, Peter bought 2 pairs of pants and 5 shirts for $62 total, and Jessica bought 2 shirts for $20 total. Each pair of pants cost the same price, and each shirt cost the same price. How much does 1 pair of pants cost?
Answer: The shirts each cost $20 / 2 shirts = $10. Let X be the pants' cost. Peter bought 2 pairs of pants and 5 shirts for 2 * X + 5 shirts * $10 / shirt = $62. Subtracting $50 from both sides, we get 2 * X = $12. Dividing both sides by 2, we get X = $6. The answer is 6.
[Question]In a week, 450 cars drove through a toll booth. Fifty vehicles went through the toll booth on Monday and the same number of vehicles drove through the toll booth on Tuesday. On each of Wednesday and Thursday, twice the number of cars that passed through the toll booth on Monday went through the toll booth. If, for the remaining of the days of the week, an equal number of vehicles passed through the toll booth, calculate the total number of cars that passed the toll both in each of the remaining days.
[Answer]There were 50 + 50 = 100 cars that went through the toll booth on Monday and Tuesday. On Wednesday, the number of cars that went through the toll booth is 2 * 50 = 100. The exact number of cars passed through the toll booth on Thursday as Wednesday, giving a total of 100 + 100 = 200 vehicles going through the toll booth in the two days. There were 200 + 100 = 300 cars that passed through the toll booth from Monday to Thursday. If the total number of cars passed through the toll booth in the week was 450, then 450 - 300 = 150 vehicles went through the toll booth on the remaining days. Since there were an equal number of cars in the toll booth on each of the remaining days, there were 150 / 3 = 50 cars on each day. The answer is 50.
Q: Alan bought a $2000 phone online. John bought it 2% more expensive in a local store. How much did John spend on his phone?

Question: In Canada, for every moose there are two beavers, and for every beaver there are 19 humans. If there are 38 million people in Canada, what is the moose population of Canada, in millions?
Answer: If there are 19 humans for every one beaver, then there are 38 million / 19 = 2 million beavers in Canada. And if for every one moose there are two beavers, then the moose population of Canada is 2 million / 2 = 1 million. The answer is 1.
[Question]Cindy has 37 envelopes. If Cindy gives 3 envelopes to each of her 5 friends, how many envelopes does she have left?

[Question]Camden just bought 3/4 times as many dogs as Rico, who has 10 more dogs than Justin. If Justin has 14 dogs, what's the total number of legs that Camden's dogs have?
[Answer]
If Justin has 14 dogs, Rico, who has 10 more dogs than Justin, has 14 + 10 = 24 dogs. Since Camden just bought 3 / 4 times as many dogs as Rico, he bought 3 / 4 * 24 = 18 dogs. A dog has four legs, so Camden's 18 dogs have 18 * 4 = 72 legs. The answer is 72.
