Reasoning and answer: As the groups are equally sized, they must each have 18 students in the class / 3 groups = 6 students in each group. So each group takes 6 students in each group * 4 minutes per each student’s trip = 24 minutes to go through the museum.
The answer: 24

At this point in the season, Donovan has scored 26 * 15 = 390 points. To reach his goal of 30 points per game, he would have to finish the season with a total of 30 * 20 = 600 points. For the remaining 5 games, Donovan needs to score 600 - 390 = 210 points. Therefore, he needs to average 210 / 5 = 42 points per game.
The answer: 42
Reverse engineering the question: Donovan Mitchell is currently averaging 26 points per game. His team has played 15 games this season. He has a goal of averaging 30 points per game for the entire 20 game season. How many points does he need to average per game to reach his goal?


Reasoning and answer: Porter's weekly earning is $8x5 = $40. Porter's monthly earning is $40x4 = $160. The extra amount he will earn when he works on his overtime is $8 x 50 / 100 = $4. So the amount he will earn on his overtime is $8 + $4 = $12. Since he will render overtime once every week, the total overtime pay he will earn in a month is $12 x 4 = $48. Therefore the total money he will earn in a week is $160 + $48 = $208.
The answer: 208

Reasoning and answer: Cindy puts in 10 cents x 5 = 50 cents. Eric puts in 3 x 25 cents = 75 cents. Garrick puts in 8 x 5 cents = 40 cents. Ivy puts in 60 x 1 cent = 60 cents. After Eric pulls out a quarter, he has still left in the pond, 75 - 25 = 50 cents. Together, they put into the pond, this amount of money, 50 + 50 + 40 + 60 = 200 cents.
The answer: 200
