Q: Rachel drinks 2 glasses of water on Sunday and 4 glasses of water on Monday. Then she drinks 3 glasses of water every day for the next 4 days. One glass of water is 10 ounces of water. If Rachel wants to drink a total of 220 ounces of water in the week (Sunday to Saturday), how many glasses of water should she drink on Saturday?
A: From Sunday and Monday, Rachel drinks 2 + 4 = 6 glasses of water. From Tuesday to Friday, Rachel drinks 3 * 4 = 12 glasses of water. The total glasses of water she drinks from Sunday to Friday is 6 + 12 = 18 glasses of water. The total ounces of water she drinks from Sunday to Friday is 18 * 10 = 180 ounces. The ounces of water she should drink on Saturday is 220 - 180 = 40 ounces. The glasses of water she should drink on Saturday is 40 / 10 = 4 glasses of water. The answer is 4.

[Question]Peggy fell off her bike and skinned her knees. She needed two bandages on her left knee and three bandages on her right knee. If the box of bandages had 8 less than two dozen bandages before Peggy skinned her knees, how many bandages were left in the box after Peggy finished putting bandages on her knees?
[Answer]Two dozen is 12 * 2 = 24. Eight less than two dozen bandages is 24 - 8 = 16 bandages. She needed two bandages on her left knee and three bandages on her right knee for a total of 2 + 3 = 5 bandages. Therefore, after Peggy finished putting bandages on her knees there were 16 - 5 = 11 bandages remaining in the box. The answer is 11.

Question: Sydney and Conner are having a three day rock collecting contest to see who can have the largest collection after adding to their existing collections. Before they start, Sydney has 837 rocks and Conner has 723. On day one, Sydney collects 4 rocks and Conner collects 8 times as many. On day two Sydney rests and Conner collects 123. On the third day, Sydney collects twice as many as Conner did on the first day. How many does Conner have to collect on day three to make sure he at least ties Sydney?
Answer:
On day one Conner collects 32 rocks because 8 x 4 = 32. On day three Sydney collects 64 because 32 x 2 = 64. After three days Sydney has 915 rocks because 837 + 0 + 4 + 64 = 905. Before the third day Conner has 878 because 723 + 32 + 123 = 878. Conner needs to collect 37 on day three to tie Sydney because 905 - 878 = 27. The answer is 27.
