Question: Three buckets are holding different fruits. Bucket A has 4 more pieces of fruit than bucket B while bucket B has 3 more pieces of fruit than bucket C. If bucket C has 9 pieces of fruit, how many pieces of fruit are in all 3 buckets?
Answer with step-by-step thinking: Bucket B has 3 more fruits than C (which has 9 fruits) for a total of 9 + 3 = 12 fruits. Bucket A has 4 more fruits than B (which has 12 fruits) for a total of 12 + 4 = 16 fruits. All three buckets have a total of 9 + 12 + 16 = 37 fruits.
So the answer is 37.

Question: Tire repair for each tire costs $7, plus another 50 cents for sales tax. If Juan needs all 4 tires repaired, how much is the final cost?
Answer with step-by-step thinking: Juan pays 4 * 7 = 28 dollars for all four tire repairs. Juan pays 0.50 * 4 = 2 dollars in sales tax for all four tire repairs. Juan pays a total of 28 + 2 = 30 dollars.
So the answer is 30.

Question: A typical tournament of tennis has 4 rounds. There are 8 games in the first round, 4 in the second round, 2 in the third round and 1 during the finals. If each game requires new tennis balls, and on average each game uses 5 cans of tennis balls, how many tennis balls in total are used at the end of the tournament if each can has 3 tennis balls?
Answer with step-by-step thinking:
There are a total of 8 + 4 + 2 + 1 = 15 games of tennis in a typical tournament. If 1 game uses 5 cans of tennis balls, then 15 games would use 15 * 5 = 75 cans of tennis balls. If 1 can of tennis balls has 3 balls, then 75 cans would have 225 balls.
So the answer is 225.
