We have a question: Richard starts walking from Cincinnati to New York City, which is 70 miles. Richards walks 20 miles the first day. The next day he walks 6 miles less than half as much as he walked the first day. He walks 10 miles the third day. How many miles further does Richard have to walk to be in New York City?
And an answer: 36
So how you got the answer?
The second day Richard walks 20 / 2 - 6 = 4 miles. Richard walks 20 + 4 + 10 = 34 total miles. Richard has 70 - 34 = 36 miles further to walk to be in New York City.

We have a question: Every day, Lou works out by running three miles on a circular track that is one-quarter of a mile long. His wife, Rosie, also runs on the same track at the same time as her husband, but she runs at twice the speed of her husband. During their workout, how many times does Rosie circle the track?
And an answer: 24
So how you got the answer?
If Lou runs 3 miles during his workout on a track that is 1 / 4 miles long, then he circles the track 3 / (1 / 4) = 12 times. If Rosie runs twice as fast as Lou, then over the same time period, she runs 3 * 2 = 6 miles. If Rosie runs 6 miles on the 1 / 4 mile track, then she circles the track 6 / (1 / 4) = 24 times.

We have a question: Marcy's grade is electing their class president. Marcy got three times as many votes as Barry, who got twice as many as 3 more than the number of votes Joey got. If Joey got 8 votes, how many votes did Marcy get?
And an answer: 66
So how you got the answer?
First, add three to Joey's vote total: 8 votes + 3 votes = 11 votes. Then double that number to find the number of votes Barry got: 11 votes * 2 = 22 votes. Then triple that number to find Marcy's vote total: 22 votes * 3 = 66 votes.
