Heidi's apartment has 2 * 9 = 18 rooms. Danielle's apartment has 18 / 3 = 6 rooms.
The answer: 6
Reverse engineering the question: Heidi's apartment has 3 times as many rooms as Danielle's apartment. Grant's apartment has 1/9 as many rooms as Heidi's apartment. If Grant's apartment has 2 rooms, how many rooms does Danielle's apartment have?


Reasoning and answer: Braelynn bought 1 / 3 * 24 = 8 more knives to add to her kitchen. The total number of knives in her kitchen is now 24 + 8 = 32 knives. In her kitchen, Braelynn currently has 2 * 24 = 48 teaspoons. When she buys 2 / 3 times more teaspoons, the total number increases by 2 / 3 * 48 = 32. So she will have a total of 32 + 48 = 80 teaspoons. The total number of cutlery pieces Braelynn will have in her kitchen is 80 + 32 = 112.
The answer: 112
What was the question?
Question: Braelynn has 24 knives in her kitchen and twice as many teaspoons as knives. If she bought 1/3 as many additional knives and 2/3 as many additional teaspoons, what would be the total number of cutlery pieces she has in her kitchen?


First find the total number of peanut butter cookies: 40 peanut butter cookies + 30 peanut butter cookies = 70 peanut butter cookies. Then find the total number of cookies by adding the number of peanut butter cookies to the number of the other two types: 70 peanut butter cookies + 50 chocolate chip cookies + 20 lemon cookies = 140 cookies. Then divide the number of peanut butter cookies by the total number of cookies and multiply by 100% to find the percentage chance of Renee getting a peanut butter cookie: 70 peanut butter cookies / 140 cookies * 100% = 50%.
The answer: 50
Reverse engineering the question: Jenny brought in 40 peanut butter cookies and 50 chocolate chip cookies for the bake sale. Marcus brought in 30 peanut butter cookies and and 20 lemon cookies. If Renee, who's allergic to peanuts, picks a cookie at random, what is the chance she'll have an allergic reaction expressed as a percentage?

The answer: 50
What was the question?
Question: Lassie eats half of her bones on Saturday. On Sunday she received 10 more bones. She now has a total of 35 bones. How many bones did she start with before eating them on Saturday?


Reasoning and answer: The total number of hours that Rafael has worked by Tuesday is 8 + 10 = 18 hours. To complete his assigned work hours, Rafael works 20 hours more, making his total weekly hours to be 18 + 20 = 38 hours. Since he is paid $20 per hour, he makes $20 * 38 = $760 a week.
The answer: 760
What was the question?
Question:
Rafael works 10 hours on Monday and 8 hours on Tuesday on his delivery job. With 20 hours left to work in the week, how much money does Rafael make if he is paid $20 per hour?
