Q: Mark has kangaroos and goats. Kangaroos have two legs and goats have four legs. If he has 23 kangaroos and three times as many goats as kangaroos what is the total number of legs of all his animals?
A: His kangaroos have a total of 23 * 2 = 46 legs. He has 23 * 3 = 69 goats. The goats have 69 * 4 = 276 legs. So in total his animals have 276 + 46 = 322 legs. The answer is 322.
Question: Damien jogs 5 miles per day on weekdays only. How many miles does he run over three weeks?
Answer: Three weeks at 5 days per week means Damien runs 3 * 5 = 15 times in three weeks. If each time he runs 5 miles, then over 15 running days he covers 5 * 15 = 75 miles. The answer is 75.
[Question]Mark and James need a total of 14 dice that are 12 sided to play their game. Mark has a bag of 10 dice and 60% of them are 12 sided. James has a bag of 8 dice and 75% of them are 12 sided. How many dice will the boys need to buy to play their game?
[Answer]Mark has 60% 12 sided dice, so 60 / 100 * 10 dice in his bag = 6 12 sided dice. James has 75% 12 sided dice, so 75 / 100 * 8 dice in his bag = 6 12 sided dice. They will need to purchase 14 dice - 6 dice - 6 dice = 2 dice. The answer is 2.

Question: Ethan makes beeswax candles. For each candle, he uses 8 ounces of beeswax and 1 ounce of coconut oil. If he makes three less than 10 candles, what will be the combined weight of the candles in ounces?
Answer: If each candle is 8 ounces of beeswax and 1 ounce of coconut oil, then each candle weighs 8 + 1 = 9 ounces. Three less than 10 candles is 10 - 3 = 7 candles. Thus, 7 candles, each weighing 9 ounces, will have a combined weight of 7 * 9 = 63 ounces. The answer is 63.
Q: Joanna and Jacques had 40 and 60 gumballs, respectively, in their dishes. They then purchased 4 times the number of gumballs they had initially and added these to their dishes. If they decided to put together their gumballs and shared them equally, how many gumballs did each get?
A:
When Joanna purchased 4 times the number of gumballs she initially had, she added 40 * 4 = 160 gumballs to her dish. The total number of gumballs Joanna had in her dish after buying 160 more is 160 + 40 = 200. At the same time, Jacques bought 60 * 4 = 240 new gumballs. When Jacques added his new 240 gumballs to his dish, the total number of gumballs increased to 240 + 60 = 300 gumballs. When they decided to put together their gumballs, they had 300 + 200 = 500 gumballs altogether. After sharing equally, each person got 500 / 2 = 250 gumballs. The answer is 250.
