Question: Joe goes camping with his dad on a Friday. Joe's dad has 21 marshmallows, and Joe has four times as much marshmallows as his dad. If Joe’s dad roasts a third of his marshmallows, and Joe roasts half of his marshmallows, how many marshmallows did they roast in total?
Answer: Step-by-step reasoning process: Joe’s dad roasts 21 / 3 = 7 of his marshmallows. Joe has 21 * 4 = 84 marshmallows. Joe roasts 84 / 2 = 42 of his marshmallows. Joe and his dad roasted 7 + 42 = 49 marshmallows in total.
So the answer is 49.

Question: Simon has 20% more legos than Bruce, who has 20 more than Kent. If Kent has 40 legos, how many does Simon have?
Answer: Step-by-step reasoning process: Bruce has 20 more legos than Kent who has 40 so Bruce has 20 + 40 = 60 legos. Simon has 20% more legos than Bruce who has 60 legos so that's .20 * 60 = 12 more legos. 20% more is 12 legos and Bruce has 60 so Simon has 12 + 60 = 72 legos.
So the answer is 72.

Question: For 6 weeks in the summer, Erica treats herself to 1 ice cream cone from the ice cream truck. Monday, Wednesday and Friday she gets a $2.00 orange creamsicle. Tuesday and Thursday she gets a $1.50 ice cream sandwich. Saturday and Sunday she gets a $3.00 Nutty-Buddy. How much money does she spend on ice cream in 6 weeks?
Answer: Step-by-step reasoning process: Mon, Wed, Fri she gets a $2.00 orange creamsicle so that's 3 days * $2 / day = $6.00. Tue and Thur she gets a $1.50 ice cream sandwich so that's 2 days * $1.50 / day = $3.00. Sat and Sun she gets a $3.00 nutty - buddy so that's 2 days * $3 / day = $6.00. In one week she spends $6 + $3 + $6 = $15.00. Over 6 weeks she spends 6 weeks * $15 / week = $90.00.
So the answer is 90.

Question: Susie and Britney each keep chickens, of two different breeds. Susie has 11 Rhode Island Reds and 6 Golden Comets. Britney has twice as many Rhode Island Reds as Susie, but only half as many Golden Comets. How many more chickens are in Britney's flock than in Susie's?
Answer:
Step-by-step reasoning process: Britney has 11 * 2 = 22 Rhode Island Reds. She has 6 / 2 = 3 Golden Comets. She has 22 + 3 = 25 total. Susie has 11 + 6 = 17 total. Britney has 25 - 17 = 8 more.
So the answer is 8.
