[Question]Michael ran a bakeshop and had to fill an order for 5 peach pies, 4 apple pies and 3 blueberry pies. Each pie recipe called for 3 pounds of fruit each. At the market, produce was on sale for $1.00 per pound for both blueberries and apples. The peaches each cost $2.00 per pound. How much will Michael spend at the market buying the fruit for his pie order?
[Answer]Each pie needs 3 pounds of fruit so for 5 Peach pies, 3 * 5 = 15 pounds of fruit. 3 pounds of fruit for 4 apple pies is 3 * 4 = 12 pounds. 3 pounds of fruit for 3 blueberry pies is 3 * 3 = 9 pounds. He needs 12 pounds of apples and 9 pounds of blueberries so 12 + 9 = 21. 21 pounds of fruit at $1.00 per pound is 21 * 1 = $21.00. 15 pounds of peaches will cost $2.00 per pound so 15 * 2 = $30. The apple and blueberries will cost $21.00 and the peaches will cost $30 so 21 + 30 = $51. The answer is 51.

Question: Katy, Wendi, and Carrie went to a bread-making party. Katy brought three 5-pound bags of flour. Wendi brought twice as much flour as Katy, but Carrie brought 5 pounds less than the amount of flour Wendi brought. How much more flour, in ounces, did Carrie bring than Katy?
Answer: Katy's three 5 - pound bags of flour weigh 3 * 5 = 15 pounds. Wendi brought twice as much flour as Katy, or 15 * 2 = 30 pounds of flour. Carrie brought 5 pounds less flour than Wendi, or 30 - 5 = 25 pounds of flour. Thus, Carrie brought 25 - 15 = 10 pounds of flour more than Katy. In ounces, the 10 pound difference is 10 * 16 = 160 ounces. The answer is 160.
