[Question]Timmy's parents have a 2 car garage, which has both cars inside it. Also inside is a riding lawnmower, a bicycle for Timmy as well as each of his parents, a tricycle for Timmy's little brother Joey, and a unicycle that Timmy's dad practices riding on. How many wheels in total are in this garage?
[Answer]Each car in the garage has 4 wheels, for a total of 4 * 2 = 8 wheels. The riding lawnmower has 4 wheels, bringing the total up to 8 + 4 = 12 wheels. The bicycles have 2 wheels each and there are 3 of them, for 3 * 2 = 6 wheels, bringing the total to 12 + 6 = 18. The tricycle has 3 wheels, and the unicycle has 1 wheel, bringing the total up to 18 + 1 + 3 = 22 wheels. The answer is 22.
Q: Alex and Max are running a race against each other. At the beginning of the race they are even with each other for 200 feet. Then Alex gets ahead of Max by 300 feet. Then Max gets ahead of Alex by 170 feet. Alex gets a burst of speed and gets ahead of Max by 440 feet. If the road they're running on is 5000 feet long, how many feet are there left for Max to catch up to Alex?
A: So far Alex and Max are running the race for 200 + 300 + 170 + 440 = 1,110 feet. If the road they're racing each other on is 5000 feet long, 5000 - 1,110 feet = 3,890 feet left for Max to catch up to Alex. The answer is 3890.
