Q: If Brooke adds eight balloons to his current 12, and Tracy adds 24 to her current 6, how many balloons will they have in total if Tracy pops half of her balloons?
A: When Brooke gets twelve more balloons, his total becomes 12 + 8 = 20. When Tracy adds 24 more balloons to her 6, her total number of balloons becomes 24 + 6 = 30. When half of Tracy's balloons pop, she remains with 1 / 2 * 30 = 15. The combined total balloons for the two is 15 + 20 = 35 balloons. The answer is 35.
Question: The chocolate factory produces 50 candies per hour. It has to fulfill an order and produce 4000 candies. How many days will it take to complete the order if the factory works for 10 hours every day?

[Question]Peyton Manning throws a football 20 yards when the temperature is 50 degrees Fahrenheit, but the ball moves twice as far when the temperature is 80 degrees Fahrenheit. Last Saturday, the temperature was 50 degrees Fahrenheit, and he threw the ball twenty times. On Sunday, the temperature rose to 80 degrees Fahrenheit, and he threw the ball 30 times. Calculate the total number of yards he threw the ball in the two days.
[Answer]On Saturday, he threw the ball 20 times, and since the temperature was 50 degrees, he could throw only 20 yards, totaling 20 * 20 = 400 yards. On Sunday, the temperature favored him, and he threw the ball twice the distance he could throw on Saturday, which is 2 * 20 = 40 yards. If he threw the ball 30 times, he threw for 30 * 40 = 1200 yards. In the two days, he threw 1200 + 400 = 1600 yards. The answer is 1600.

A: From Danny, there are 3 * 10 = 30 watermelon slices. From his sister, there are 1 * 15 = 15 watermelon slices. There are a total of 30 + 15 = 45 watermelon slices. The answer is 45.
Question: Thomas is making hummus. One of the ingredients in a hummus recipe is chickpeas. For one serving of hummus, the recipe calls for 1 cup of chickpeas. In a can of chickpeas, there are 16 ounces of chickpeas. In one cup of chickpeas, there are 6 ounces. To make 20 servings, how many cans of chickpeas should Thomas buy?
Answer: For 20 servings, Thomas needs 20 * 1 = 20 cups of chickpeas. To have 20 cups, Thomas needs 20 * 6 = 120 ounces. 120 ounces / 16 ounces = 7.5 cans of chickpeas. Since Thomas cannot buy half a can, he needs to buy 8 cans. The answer is 8.
Q: A building has four floors with ten rooms each. Legacy has to clean each room, and it takes her 6 hours to clean one room. If she earns $15 per hour of work, calculate the total amount of money she makes from cleaning all the floors in the building.
A:
Since the building has four floors with ten rooms each, the total number of rooms in the building is 4 * 10 = 40. If it takes Legacy 6 hours to clean each room, she will take 40 * 6 = 240 hours to clean all the rooms in the building. Since she is making $15 per hour of work, she will earn $15 * 240 = $3600 after cleaning all the rooms. The answer is 3600.
