Question: Brandon sold some geckos to a local pet shop. Brandon sold the geckos for 100$. The pet store sells them for 5 more than 3 times that. How much does the pet store profit?
Answer: Step-by-step reasoning process: The pet store sells the geckos for 5 + 3(100) = 305$. Pet store profit: 305 - 100 = 205$.
So the answer is 205.

Question: Patricia has 4 barrels of 7 gallons each. All of them are empty, and there's only one faucet with a flow rate of 3.5 gallons per minute. How many minutes will it take to fill all 4 barrels?
Answer: Step-by-step reasoning process: If Patricia has 4 barrels and each barrel has 7 gallons, then in total she needs 4 * 7 = 28 gallons. If the faucet can provide 3.5 gallons every minute, then she will need 28 / 3.5 = 8 minutes to fill all 4 barrels.
So the answer is 8.

Question: Bob grew corn in his garden this year and ended up with 50 bushels. This is way too much for him to eat, so he gave some of it away to his friends. His friend Terry took 8 bushels, while Jerry only took 3. He gave 12 bushels to his friend Linda, who runs a food pantry. His neighbor Stacy doesn't eat much corn, but she still accepted 21 ears of corn from him. If each bushel contained 14 ears of corn, how many ears of corn does Bob have left?
Answer: Step-by-step reasoning process: Stacy took 21 ears of corn, there are 14 ears to a bushel, so she took 21 ears / 14 ears / bushel = 1.5 bushels of corn. In all, Bob gave away 8 bushels + 3 bushels + 12 bushels + 1.5 bushels = 24.5 bushels of corn. This leaves him with 50 bushels - 24.5 bushels = 25.5 bushels of corn. At 14 ears of corn per bushel, Bob has 25.5 bushels * 14 ears per bushel = 357 ears of corn.
So the answer is 357.

Question: Johnny wrote an essay with 150 words. Madeline wrote an essay that was double in length, and Timothy wrote an essay that had 30 words more than Madeline's. If one page contains 260 words, how many pages do Johnny, Madeline, and Timothy's essays fill?
Answer:
Step-by-step reasoning process: Madeline's essay was 150 x 2 = 300 words. Timothy's essay was 300 + 30 = 330 words. All together, they wrote 150 + 300 + 330 = 780 words. Their essays fill 780 / 260 = 3 pages.
So the answer is 3.
