Leila eats cake almost every week. Last week, she ate 6 cakes on Monday, 9 cakes on Friday, and on Saturday, she ate triple the number of cakes she ate on Monday. How many cakes does Leila eat?
Let's think: Combining Monday and Friday, Leila ate 6 + 9 = 15 cakes. On Saturday, she ate 6 * 3 = 18 cakes. Altogether, Leila ate 15 + 18 = 33 cakes.. The answer is: 33.

The base of a hill located beside a river is 300m above the seabed. If this depth is a quarter of the vertical distance between the riverbed and the peak of the hill, how high is the hill?
Let's think: 300m is a quarter of the distance from the riverbed to the hill's peak so (1 / 4) * distance from riverbed to peak = 300m. Multiplying both sides of the equation by 4 gives the distance from riverbed to peak = 300m * 4 = 1200m. The height of the hill is the difference between the distance from the riverbed to the hill's peak and the distance from the riverbed to the hill's base which is 1200m - 300m = 900m.. The answer is: 900.

Rhea buys 2 trays of eggs every week for her family. Her son and daughter eat 2 eggs every morning, and Rhea and her husband eat 4 eggs every night. If each tray has 24 eggs, how many eggs are not being eaten every week?
Let's think: Rhea buys a total of 24 x 2 = 48 eggs every week. Her son and daughter eat 2 x 7 = 14 eggs every week. Rhea and her husband eat 4 x 7 = 28 eggs every week. So, the total eggs they eat is 28 + 14 = 42. Therefore, the total number of eggs that are not being eaten is 48 - 42 = 6.. The answer is: 6.

Luna, the poodle, is supposed to eat 2 cups of kibble every day. But Luna's master, Mary, and her husband, Frank, sometimes feed Luna too much kibble. One day, starting with a new, 12-cup bag of kibble, Mary gave Luna 1 cup of kibble in the morning and 1 cup of kibble in the evening, But on the same day, Frank also gave Luna 1 cup of kibble in the afternoon and twice as much in the late evening as he had given Luna in the afternoon. The next morning, how many cups of kibble will Mary find remaining in the bag?
Let's think:
Mary fed Luna 1 + 1 = 2 cups of kibble. Frank fed Luna 1 - cup plus twice 1 - cup, or 1 + 2 = 3 cups of kibble. In total, they fed Luna 2 + 3 = 5 cups of kibble. Thus, if the new bag held 12 cups of kibble, the next morning, 12 - 5 = 7 cups of kibble remained in the bag.. The answer is: 7.
