[Question]Johan has a ten-bedroom house with 8 walls in each room. He paints 3/5 of the rooms in the house green and paints the rest of the rooms with purple color. How many walls in the house did he paint purple?
[Answer]Since Cristian's house has ten rooms, he painted 3 / 5 * 10 = 6 rooms with green color. The number of rooms he painted with purple is 10 - 6 = 4 rooms. Since each room in the house has eight walls, the number of walls painted purple is 8 * 4 = 32. The answer is 32.
Q: Lauryn owns a computer company that employs men and women in different positions in the company. How many men does he employ if there are 20 fewer men than women and 180 people working for Lauryn?
A: Let's say the number of men working at the company is x. Since there are 180 people, and the number of men is 20 fewer than the number of women, then x + x + 20 = 180. The total number of employees in the company is 2x + 20 = 180. 2x = 180 - 20. 2x = 160. The number of men is x = 160 / 2. There are x = 80 men in the company. The answer is 80.

Question: James joins a football team and becomes the star. He scores 4 touchdowns per game and each touchdown is worth 6 points. There are 15 games in the season. He also manages to score 2 point conversions 6 times during the season. The old record was 300 points during the season. How many points did James beat the old record by?
Answer:
He scored 4 * 6 = 24 points per game. So he scored 15 * 24 = 360 points from touchdowns. He also scored 2 * 6 = 12 points from the 2 point conversions. So he scored a total of 360 + 12 = 372 points. That means he beat the old record by 372 - 300 = 72 points. The answer is 72.
