Reasoning and answer: The second guinea pig eats 2 x 2 = 4 cups of food. The third guinea pig eats 4 + 3 = 7 cups of food. Therefore, Rollo needs a total of 2 + 4 + 7 = 13 cups of food for the guinea pig.
The answer: 13

First find MegaCorp's total daily profits: $3,000,000 + $5,000,000 = $8,000,000. Then multiply that number by the number of days in a year to find their annual profits: 365 days / year * $8,000,000 = $2,920,000,000. Then multiply their monthly expenses by the number of months in a year to find their annual expenses: $30,000,000 / month * 12 months = $360,000,000. Then subtract their annual expenses from their annual earnings to find their annual profit: $2920000000 - $360,000,000 = $2,560,000,000. Then multiply the annual profits by the percentage paid for the fine to find the value of the fine in dollars: $2,560,000,000 * 1% = $25,600,000.
The answer: 25600000
Reverse engineering the question: MegaCorp got caught leaking carcinogens into the water supply and is being fined 1% of its annual profits. Every day MegaCorp earns $3,000,000 from mining and $5,000,000 from oil refining. Its monthly expenses are $30,000,000. How much is MegaCorp's fine in dollars?

We know that 4 small pizzas and 5 medium pizzas = 4 + 5 = 9 non - large pizzas were purchased. Because a total of 15 pizzas were purchased then 15 - 9 = 6 large pizzas were ordered. If 1 small pizza has 6 slices then 4 small pizzas will have 4 * 6 = 24 slices. Similarly, If 1 medium pizza has 8 slices then 5 medium pizzas will have 5 * 8 = 40 slices. Similarly, If 1 large pizza has 12 slices then 6 large pizzas will have 6 * 12 = 72 slices. That means in total we have 24 small slices + 40 medium slices + 72 large slices = 24 + 40 + 72 = 136 slices of pizza.
The answer: 136
Reverse engineering the question: A small pizza has 6 slices, a medium pizza has 8 slices whereas a large pizza has 12 slices. How many slices of pizza will you have if you bought a total of 15 pizzas and you know you ordered 4 small pizzas and 5 medium pizzas?

Reasoning and answer: He consumed 2500 calories, 5% of which is added sugar to give 2500 * (5 / 100) = 125 calories of added sugar. He exceeded the recommended intake of 150 calories by 100% for a total consumption of 150 + (150(100 / 100)) = $300. This means he took in 300 - 125 = 175 calories from candy alone. Each candy had 25 calories so 175 calories which means he consumed 175 / 25 = 7 bars?.
The answer: 7
What was the question?
Question:
It is recommended that men should consume no more than 150 calories of added sugar per day. Mark took a soft drink in the afternoon that contained 2500 calories, 5% of which was from added sugar.
