First find the distance Matt climbs in 7 minutes: 6 feet / minute * 7 minutes = 42 feet. Then find the distance Jason climbs in 7 minutes: 12 feet / minute * 7 minutes = 84 feet. Then subtract the distance Matt climbs from the distance Jason climbs to find the difference: 84 feet - 42 feet = 42 feet.
The answer: 42
Reverse engineering the question: Jason is climbing a telephone pole next to a tree his friend Matt is climbing. Matt can climb 6 feet/minute and Jason can climb 12 feet per minute. After 7 minutes, how much higher will Jason be than Matt?


Reasoning and answer: Jennifer has 2 * 10 = 20 apples. She has a total of 10 + 20 + 20 = 50 fruits. She gives her sister 2 pears + 2 oranges + 2 apples = 6 fruits. After giving her sister 2 of each fruit, she has 50 - 6 = 44 fruits left.
The answer: 44
What was the question?
Question: Jennifer has ten pears, 20 oranges, and twice as many apples as pears. If she gives her sister two of each fruit, how many fruits does she have left?


One less than 5 is 5 - 1 = 4. If one tarantula egg sac can contain 1000 tarantulas, then four egg sacs can hold 4 * 1000 = 4000 tarantula babies. If each tarantula baby has eight legs, the 4 egg sacs can contain 4000 * 8 = 32,000 baby tarantula legs.
The answer: 32000
Reverse engineering the question: If a tarantula has eight legs, and one tarantula egg sac can contain 1000 tarantulas, how many baby tarantula legs would be in one less than 5 egg sacs?


Reasoning and answer: If Kristoff has 85 stickers, Riku has 25 * 85 stickers = 2125 more stickers. The total number of stickers Riku has is 2125 stickers + 85 stickers = 2210 stickers.
The answer: 2210
What was the question?
Question: Riku has 25 times more stickers than Kristoff. If Kristoff has 85 stickers, how many stickers does Riku have?


A single layer of each wall requires 5 rows * 20 bricks per row = 100 bricks. As each wall has a thickness of 2 bricks, he will need 100 bricks * 2 = 200 bricks per wall. If the complete fence contains four walls, he will require a total of 200 * 4 = 800 bricks.
The answer: 800
Reverse engineering the question: Cooper is building a brick fence around all four sides of his property. Each of the four walls of his fence is 20 bricks long, 5 bricks high, and 2 bricks deep. How many bricks does Cooper need to complete his fence?


First find the total number of snakes eaten: 5 snakes / jaguar * 6 jaguars = 30 snakes. Then find the total number of birds eaten per day: 30 snakes * 3 birds / snake = 90 snakes. Then multiply the number of snakes by the number of beetles per snake to find the total number of beetles eaten per day: 90 snakes * 12 beetles / snake = 1080 beetles.
The answer: 1080
Reverse engineering the question:
Each bird eats 12 beetles per day, each snake eats 3 birds per day, and each jaguar eats 5 snakes per day. If there are 6 jaguars in a forest, how many beetles are eaten each day?
