Q: James's favorite basketball player got paid based on how many points he averaged each week. He gets $10,000 if he averages 30 or more points a game and $8,000 if he averages under 30 points a game. For his last week, in the first game he scored 30 points and in the second game he scored 28 points. In the third game he scored 32 points. In the fourth game he scored 34 points and in the fifth game he scored 26 points. How much does he get paid for the week?
A: His favorite player scored 150 total points that week because 30 plus 28 plus 32 plus 34 plus 26 equals 150. He averaged 30 points a game because 150 divided by 5 equals 30. He gets paid $10,000 because that's how much he gets if he averages 30 or more points that week. The answer is 10000.

[Question]There are 32 tables in a hall. Half the tables have 2 chairs each, 5 have 3 chairs each and the rest have 4 chairs each. How many chairs in total are in the hall?
[Answer]Half of 32 tables is 32 * (1 / 2) = 16 tables. 16 tables have 2 chairs each for a total of 16 * 2 = 32 chairs. 5 tables have 3 chairs each for a total of 5 * 3 = 15 chairs. There are 32 - (16 + 5) = 11 tables left. 11 tables have 4 chairs each for a total of 11 * 4 = 44 chairs. The total number of chairs is 32 + 15 + 44 = 91 chairs. The answer is 91.
Q: Tedra is harvesting his tomatoes. He harvests 400 kg on Wednesday, and half as much on Thursday. He harvests a total of 2000 kg on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. How many tomatoes of the number he harvested on Friday are remaining if he gives away 700kg of them to his friends?
A: Tedra harvests 1 / 2 * 400 kg = 200 kg of tomatoes on Thursday. Tedra harvests 2000 kg - 400 kg - 200 kg = 1400 kg of tomatoes on Friday. After giving away tomatoes to his friends, he is left with 1400 kg - 700 kg = 700 kg of tomatoes. The answer is 700.
Question: Jacob is making s'mores. Each s'more takes two graham crackers and one marshmallow. If Jacob has 48 graham crackers and 6 marshmallows, how many more marshmallows does he need to buy?
