Q: Henry took 9 pills a day for 14 days. Of these 9 pills, 4 pills cost $1.50 each, and the other pills each cost $5.50 more. How much did he spend in total on the pills?
A: There were 9 - 4 = 5 other pills. Each of the other pills cost 1.50 + 5.50 = 7 dollars each. The 5 pills cost a total of 7 * 5 = 35 dollars. The first 4 pills cost 1.50 * 4 = 6 dollars in total. Henry spent a total of 35 + 6 = 41 dollars. The answer is 41.
Question: Clara brings a package of 100 stickers to school. She gives 10 stickers to a boy she likes. She gives half of the stickers which she has left to her best friends. How many stickers does Clara have left?

Question: Maria wants to buy a brand new bike. The retail price at the bike shop stands at $600. She saved $120 toward the purchase. As this was not enough, she asked her mother to give her the remaining amount. Her mother offered her $250 and told her that she needs to earn the rest working during the holidays. How much money must Maria earn to be able to buy the bike she wants?
Answer: Maria has $120 and received $250 from her mother. So she has 120 + 250 = $370. As the price of the bike stands at $600, Maria needs 600 – 370 = $230 more to buy the bike. The answer is 230.
