Jennifer purchased 40 cans of milk at the store before meeting her classmate Mark, who was also buying milk. Jennifer bought 6 additional cans for every 5 cans Mark bought. If Mark purchased 50 cans, how many cans of milk did Jennifer bring home from the store? Let's think first. Chain of thought:
If Mark bought 50 cans of milk, the number of times Jennifer added 6 cans for every 5 that Mark bought is 50 / 5 = 10 times. The total number of additional cans she bought is 10 * 6 = 60 cans. If she initially had 40 cans, she went home with 40 + 60 = 100 cans of milk.
Therefore, the answer is 100.
