Answer this question:Maria is chopping up vegetables for a stew. She wants to cut up six times as many carrots as potatoes, twice as many onions as carrots, and 1/3 as many green beans as onions. If she has two potatoes, how many green beans does she need to cut?
First find how many carrots Maria needs to cut by multiplying the number of potatoes by 6: 6 * 2 = 12. Then find how many onions she needs by multiplying the number of carrots by 2: 12 * 2 = 24. Finally, divide the number of onions by 3 to find the number of green beans she needs 24 / 3 = 8.
The answer is 8.

Answer this question:There are 25 roses in a garden. There are 40 tulips. There are 35 daisies. What percentage of flowers are not roses?
There are 25 + 40 + 35 = 100 flowers total. There are 40 + 35 = 75 flowers that are not roses. Therefore, (75 / 100) * 100 = 75% of the flowers are not roses.
The answer is 75.

Answer this question:Happy Cattle Ranch is home to 200 cows. Every year, the mother cows have enough calves that the number of cows the rancher owns rises by half the number of cows living on the ranch. If the rancher does not buy or sell any cows, how many cows will the rancher own on Happy Cattle Ranch in two years?
In one year, the rancher will have 200 + 200 / 2 = 200 + 100 = 300 cows. In two years, the rancher will have 300 + 300 / 2 = 300 + 150 = 450 cows.
The answer is 450.
