Question: Jean the jaguar has a beautiful fur coat containing a pattern of many rose-shaped spots, as unique as a human fingerprint. Half of her spots are located on her upper torso, with one-third of the spots located on her back and hindquarters, and the remaining spots located on her sides. If Jean has 30 spots on her upper torso, how many spots does she have located on her sides?
Answer: If 30 is half the number of her spots, then she has 30 * 2 = 60 spots total. If one - third of her spots are located on her back and hindquarters, then she has 60 / 3 = 20 spots located on her back and hindquarters. If the reaming spots are located on her sides, then 60 - 30 - 20 = 10 spots are located on her sides. The answer is 10.
[Question]Todd borrowed $100 from his brother to start a snow-cone stand. He has to repay him $110 as soon as he can. Todd spent $75 on ingredients for the snow cones. He sells 200 of them for $.75 each. After he pays back his brother, how much money does Todd have?
[Answer]Todd has $25 left after buying ingredients because 100 - 75 = 25. Todd made $150 selling snow - cones because 200 x .75 = 150. Todd has $175 before he pays his brother back because 25 + 150 = 175. After Todd pays his brother back he has $65 because 175 - 110 = 65. The answer is 65.
Q: Bethany loved riding horses. She rode 1 hour after school every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. On Tuesday and Thursday, she rode for 30 min and on Saturdays, she could ride for 2 hours. How many hours in total did she ride over a 2 week period?
A: She rode 1 hour every Monday, Wednesday and Friday each week so every week she rode 1 * 3 = 3 hours. She rode 30 min on Tuesday and Thursday each week for a total of 30 * 2 = 60 min or 1 hour.

[Question]Susan had a bouquet of 3 dozen roses. She gave half to her daughter, and then placed the rest in a vase. The next day, one-third of the flowers in the vase were wilted. After removing the wilted flowers, how many flowers remained in the vase?
[Answer]
Susan had a bouquet of 3 dozen roses, which is 3 * 12 = 36 flowers. She gave half, 36 / 2 = 18, to her daughter. Then she placed her 36 - 18 = 18 remaining flowers in a vase. One - third of the 18 flowers in the vase wilted, resulting in 18 / 3 = 6 wilted flowers. After removing the wilted flowers, Susan had 18 - 6 = 12 flowers remaining in the vase. The answer is 12.
