Q: Julie is making caesar salad for a family picnic. At the market, she spends $8 on green lettuce and $6 on red lettuce. If each type of lettuce costs $2 per pound, how many total pounds of lettuce did she buy?
A: 7
Step-by-step reasoning process: The total cost of the green and red lettuce is $8 + $6 = $14. Julie bought $14 / $2 = 7 pounds of lettuce.


Q: The ratio of boys to girls at the dance was 3:4. There were 60 girls at the dance. The teachers were 20% of the number of boys. How many people were at the dance?
A: 114
Step-by-step reasoning process: 60 girls represent 4 parts, so one part of students is 60 / 4 = 15 students. There are 15 * 3 = 45 boys at the dance. The teachers at the dance are 45 * 0,2 = 9 teachers at the dance. There are 60 + 45 + 9 = 114 people at the dance.


Q: Megan is making food for a party. She has to spend 20 minutes preparing one dish in the oven. Each dish can feed 5 people. She spends 2 hours preparing as many of these dishes as she can for the party. How many people can she feed with these dishes?
A: 30
Step-by-step reasoning process: First, we need to determine the total amount of minutes available for cooking. We do this by performing 2 * 60 = 120, as there are 60 minutes in an hour. Now that we know we have 120 minutes, we then divide the preparation time into the total amount of time by performing 120 / 20 = 6 dishes capable of being made. Since each dish can feed 5 people, we find the total number of people fed by performing 5 * 6 = 30 people.


Q: A zoo has 16 pandas, paired into mates (in the same zoo). Only 25% of the panda couples get pregnant after mating. If they each have one baby, how many panda babies are born?
A: 2
Step-by-step reasoning process: First divide the number of pandas by 2 to find the number of couples: 16 pandas / 2 = 8 panda couples. Then multiply that number by 25% to find the number of babies: 8 panda couples * 25% = 2 panda babies.
