Q: Kyle can lift 60 more pounds this year, which is 3 times as much as he could lift last year. How many pounds can Kyle lift in all?
A: Since Kyle can lift 60 more pounds and that is 3 times what he could do before, that means that last year Kyle could lift 60 pounds / 3 = 20 pounds. Kyle can now lift 60 pounds + 20 pounds he could lift last year = 80 pounds. The answer is 80.
Question: Lisa is making a pizza. She uses 30 pieces of pepperoni for a pizza, twice as many pieces of ham, and 12 more pieces of sausage than pepperoni. If there are 6 slices of pizza, and everything was distributed evenly, how many pieces of meat altogether are on each slice?
Answer: There are 30 * 2 = 60 pieces of ham put on the pizza. There are 30 + 12 = 42 pieces of sausage put on the pizza. There are 30 / 6 = 5 pieces of pepperoni on each pizza slice. There are 60 / 6 = 10 pieces of ham on each pizza slice. There are 42 / 6 = 7 pieces of sausage on each pizza slice. There are 5 + 10 + 7 = 22 pieces altogether on each slice of pizza. The answer is 22.

Q: Vincent's bookstore is divided into different kinds of books. His top-selling books are fantasy books. He also sells literature books which cost half of the price of a fantasy book. If his fantasy books cost $4 each, and he sold five fantasy books and eight literature books per day, how much money will he earn after five days?
A: Vincent earns $4 x 5 = $20 for selling 5 fantasy books per day. The price of the literature book is $4 / 2 = $2 each. He earns $2 x 8 = $16 per day for selling 8 literature books. So the total money he earns per day is $16 + $20 = $36. Therefore, he will earn $36 x 5 = $180 after 5 days. The answer is 180.
