[Question]: Jerry had 63 pieces of candy. He divided them up equally into 9 bags. 2 of the bags had chocolate hearts. 3 of the bags were chocolate kisses. The rest of the bags were not chocolate. How many pieces of candy were not chocolate?
[Answer]: Jerry had 63 pieces of candy / 9 bags = 7 pieces of candy per bag. There were chocolate hearts in 2 bags * 7 = 14 chocolate hearts. There were chocolate kisses in 3 bags * 7 = 21 chocolate kisses. There was a total of 21 + 14 chocolate candy = 35 chocolate. Jerry started with 63 pieces - 35 chocolate = 28 pieces of non - chocolate candy.
So the answer is 28.

[Question]: A cobbler can mend 3 pairs of shoes in an hour. From Monday to Thursday, the cobbler works for 8 hours each day, and on Friday, he only works from 8am to 11am. How many pairs of shoes can the cobbler mend in a week?
[Answer]: From Monday to Thursday, the cobbler can mend 3 x 8 = 24 pairs of shoes a day. From Monday to Thursday, he can mend 24 x 4 = 96 pairs of shoes. On Friday, he works for 11 - 8 = 3 hours. On Friday, he can mend 3 x 3 = 9 pairs of shoes. In a week, he can mend 96 + 9 = 105 pairs of shoes.
So the answer is 105.

[Question]: My mother celebrated her birthday with a total of 60 guests. Half of the guests are women, 15 are men, and the rest are children. In the middle of the celebration, 1/3 of the men and 5 children left. How many people stayed and enjoyed the birthday celebration?
[Answer]:
There were 60 guests / 2 = 30 women at my mother's birthday celebration. There were 30 women + 15 men = 45 men and women. So, 60 people - 45 men and women = 15 were children. Then, 15 men / 3 = 5 men left. Thus, 5 men + 5 children = 10 people left. Therefore, 60 people - 10 people = 50 people stayed and enjoyed the birthday celebration.
So the answer is 50.
