Answer the following question.
A restaurant buffet has 36 different dishes available to try. The restaurant features mango salsa on three of its dishes, fresh mangoes in a sixth of its dishes, and mango jelly in one dish. Oliver despises mangoes and won't eat them, but can pick them out of two of the dishes with fresh mango that he would be willing to try. How many dishes are left for Oliver on the buffet?
Step-by-step reasoning process: There are fresh mangos in 36 / 6 = 6 dishes. Thus, there are 3 + 6 + 1 = 10 dishes with mango on the buffet. Oliver can pick the mango out of 2 of the dishes, so there are 10 - 2 = 8 dishes he won't eat. Thus, there are 36 - 8 = 28 dishes left for Oliver on the buffet.
The answer is 28.

Answer the following question.
Jade is building a lego tower. She has 100 pieces. Each level has to be 7 pieces wide. If she has 23 pieces left at the end, how many levels is her tower?
Step-by-step reasoning process: She used 77 legos because 100 - 23 = 77. She made 11 levels because 77 / 7 = 11.
The answer is 11.

Answer the following question.
Alicia has 20 gumballs. Pedro has that many gumballs plus an additional number of gumballs equal to three times the number Alicia has. They put their gumballs in a bowl, and later Pedro takes out 40% of the gumballs to eat. How many gumballs are remaining in the bowl?
Step-by-step reasoning process: If Pedro has three times more gumballs than Alicia, he has 3 * 20 gumballs = 60 gumballs more. In total, Pedro has 20 gumballs + 60 gumballs = 80 gumballs. When they put their gumballs together, the total number of gumballs in the bowl becomes 20 gumballs + 80 gumballs = 100 gumballs. Pedro takes out 40% of the gumballs which is 40 / 100 * 100 gumballs = 40 gumballs. The number of gumballs remaining is 100 gumballs - 40 gumballs = 60 gumballs.
The answer is 60.

Answer the following question.
Tom hasn't been sleeping well lately. He figures he has been getting about 5 hours of sleep each weeknight and 6 hours each night on the weekend. If Tom would ideally like to get 8 hours of sleep each night on both weeknights and weekends, how many hours of sleep is Tom behind on from the last week?
Step-by-step reasoning process: Tom ideally wants to sleep 8 hours a night for 7 days, 8 x 7 = 56 hours sleep total for the week. Tom has actually only slept 5 hours each weeknight, 5 x 5 = 25 hours of sleep. Tom has only slept 6 hours each night on the weekend, 6 x 2 = 12 hours of sleep. Total, Tom has gotten 25 + 12 hours = 37 hours sleep. The difference between how many hours Tom would like to sleep, 56, and how many hours he's actually slept, 37, is 56 - 37 = 19 hours of sleep that Tom is behind on.
The answer is 19.
