Reasoning & answer: CoT: First find how much money Bill makes every week by multiplying his hourly rate by the number of hours he works each week: $25 / hour * 30 hours / week = $750 / week. Then multiply that number by the number of weeks per month to find his monthly earnings: $750 / week * 4 weeks / month = $3,000 / month. Then multiply his monthly earnings by the number of months in a year to find his annual income: $3,000 / month * 12 months / year = $36,000 / year. This income means Bill gets a 50% monthly healthcare subsidy from the government. Multiply the cost of the premium by 50% to find the monthly cost Bill pays: $500 / month * .5 = $250 / month. Finally, multiply Bill's monthly cost by the number of months in a year to find his annual cost: $250 / month * 12 months / year = $3,000 / year.
The answer: 3000
Question: Bill is buying healthcare on an exchange. The normal monthly price of the plan he wants is $500. The government will pay for part of this cost depending on Bill's income: 90% if he makes less than $10,000, 50% if he makes between $10,001 and $40,000, and 20% if he makes more than $50,000. Bill earns $25/hour and works 30 hours per week, four weeks per month. How much will Bill spend for health insurance in a year?

Reasoning & answer: CoT: Monday:70. Tuesday:70 / 2 = 35. Wednesday:35 + 8 = 43. Total:70 + 35 + 43 = 148 birds.

Question: A bird watcher records the number of birds he sees each day. One Monday he sees 70 birds. On Tuesday he sees half as many birds as he did on Monday. On Wednesday he sees 8 more birds than he did on Tuesday. How many total birds did the bird watcher see from Monday to Wednesday?

Reasoning & answer: CoT: Each drink uses 1.5 cups because 1 / 4 cup + 1 and 1 / 4 cup = 1.5 cups. The pitcher contains 12 total drinks because 18 / 1.5 = 12. There are 15 cups of lemonade in the pitcher because 12 x 1 and 1 / 4 = 15.
The answer: 15
Question: Abigail is trying a new recipe for a cold drink. It uses 1/4 of a cup of iced tea and 1 and 1/4 of a cup of lemonade to make one drink. If she fills a pitcher with 18 total cups of this drink, how many cups of lemonade are in the pitcher?

Reasoning & answer: CoT: Bill gives each of his children 3 apples, so since he has two children this is 3 * 2 = 6 apples. Jill bakes 2 apple pies, using 10 apples each so this means she uses 10 * 2 = 20 apples. In total, this means 20 + 6 = 26 apples were used. Since Bill began with 50 apples, this means there are 50 - 26 = 24 apples remaining.
The answer: 24
