Q: Lisa has 36 candies. On Mondays and Wednesdays, she eats 2 candies for each day and on the other days of the week she eats 1 candy for each day. How many weeks does it take for Lisa to eat all of the candies?
A: On Monday and Tuesday, she eats 2 * 2 = 4 candies. On the other days of the week, she eats 5 * 1 = 5 candies. In a week she eats 5 + 4 = 9 candies. So it takes 36 / 9 = 4 weeks for Lisa to eat all candies. The answer is 4.
Question: In a class of 300 students, the number of smoking teens is 40% of the class. In a year, 70% of the smoking students are hospitalized from smoking-related complications. Calculate the total number of smoking students from the class who have not been hospitalized from smoking-related complications.
Answer: If the class has 300 students, there are 40 / 100 * 300 = 120 smoking students. In a year, 70% of the smoking students are hospitalized from smoking - related complications, a total of 70 / 100 * 120 = 84 students. The number of smoking students who've not been hospitalized from smoking - related complications is 120 - 84 = 36. The answer is 36.

Q: Toby is in a juggling contest with a friend. The winner is whoever gets the most objects rotated around in 4 minutes. Toby has 5 baseballs and each one makes 80 rotations. His friend has 4 apples and each one makes 101 rotations. How many total rotations of objects are made by the winner?
A: Toby gets 400 full rotations because 5 x 80 = 400. His friend get 404 rotations because 4 x 101 = 404. The winner rotated 404 objects because 404 > 400. The answer is 404.
Question: Sabrina went to the library and found a historical series novel called The Rangers Apprentice. There are 14 books in the series, and each book has 200 pages. She read four books in a month and half the number of books remaining in the second month. What's the total number of pages Sabrina has to read to finish the whole series?
Answer: The total number of pages in the series is 14 books * 200 pages / book = 2800 pages. Sabrina read 4 books * 200 pages / book = 800 pages in the first month. She still has 14 books - 4 books = 10 books after reading four books. In the second month, she read 1 / 2 * 10 books = 5 books. The total number of pages she read is 5 books * 200 pages / book = 1000 in the second month. In total, Sabrina 1000 pages + 800 pages = 1800 pages in two months. Sabrina has to read 2800 pages - 1800 pages = 1000 more pages to complete the total series. The answer is 1000.
Q: Mitch made 20 macarons. Joshua made 6 more macarons than Mitch but half as many macarons as Miles. Renz made 1 fewer than 3/4 as many macarons as Miles. If they will combine their macarons to give them to the kids on the street, how many kids would receive 2 macarons each?
A:
Joshua made 20 + 6 = 26 macarons. Miles made 26 x 2 = 52 macarons. Three - fourths of Miles' macarons is 52 x 3 / 4 = 39. So Renz made 39 - 1 = 38 macarons. The four of them have a total of 20 + 26 + 52 + 38 = 136 macarons combined. Thus, 136 / 2 = 68 kids would receive 2 macarons each. The answer is 68.
