[Question]Jane bought pens for her three students. Each student received 62 red pens and 43 black pens. They pooled their pens together and took them from the pool whenever they needed them. After the first month, they had taken a total of 37 pens from the pool. After the second month, they had taken another 41 pens from the pool. Then Jane decided to split the remaining pens equally among them. How many pens will each student get now?
[Answer]Each student got 62 + 43 = 105 pens to start with. They pooled them to get 105 * 3 = 315 pens in the pool. They took 37 pens in the first month, leaving 315 - 37 = 278 pens in the pool. They took 41 pens in the second month, leaving 278 - 41 = 237 pens in the pool. 237 pens were split into three equal parts to give 237 / 3 = 79 pens each. The answer is 79.
Q: Sunnyvale School was having a picnic. They wanted to make fruit punch. They had 4.5 liters of orange punch. They had twice as much cherry punch as orange punch and 1.5 liters less of apple juice than cherry punch. When they combined all of the fruit juices together, how many liters of fruit punch did they have?
A: Orange = 4.5 L. Cherry = 2 * 4.5 = 9 L. Apple = 9 - 1.5 = 7.5 L. Total punch = 4.5 + 9 + 7.5 = 21 L. They had 21 liters of fruit punch for the picnic. The answer is 21.
Question: A school has 15 classrooms. One-third of these classrooms have 30 desks in each classroom and the rest have 25 desks in each classroom. Only one student can sit at one desk. How many students can this school accommodate so that everyone has their own desk?
Answer: One - third of the classrooms have 30 desks, so there are 1 / 3 * 15 = 5 classrooms like that. The rest, which means 15 - 5 = 10 classrooms, have 25 desks. One - third of the classrooms can fit 5 * 30 = 150 students. The rest can fit 10 * 25 = 250 students. So in total, the school can be filled with 150 + 250 = 400 students. The answer is 400.
