[Question]: Sixteen boys and 14 girls attended Simon's birthday party. Three-fourths of the boys and 6/7 of the girls brought gifts. How many of those who attended did not bring gifts?
[Answer]: 16 x 3 / 4 = 12 boys brought gifts. So, 16 - 12 = 4 boys did not bring gifts. 14 x 6 / 7 = 12 girls brought gifts. So, 14 - 12 = 2 girls did not bring gifts. Therefore, a total of 4 boys + 2 girls = 6 people did not bring gifts.
So the answer is 6.

[Question]: Jen bought a bag of cookies and ate three-quarters of the bag that day. The next day, she ate half of the remaining cookies. She has 8 cookies left on the third day. How many cookies were in the bag to start?
[Answer]: On the third day, Jen had half of the second day’s cookies left, so on the second day, she had 8 * 2 = 16 cookies. On the second day, she had 1 / 4 of the first day’s cookies left, so she started with 16 * 4 = 64 cookies in the bag.
So the answer is 64.
