[Question]Abraham is buying some toiletries and creates a budget of $60 for his shopping. He buys 4 shower gels for $4 each, a tube of toothpaste for $3, and a box of laundry detergent. If he has $30 remaining in his budget, how much money, in dollars, did Abraham spend on the box of laundry detergent?
[Answer]Shower gel costs Abraham 4 shower gels * $4 = $16. So the shower gel and toothpaste combined have cost him $16 + $3 = $19. He had money remaining in his budget so the total cost of his shopping must have been $60 $30 = $30. The box of laundry detergent therefore cost him $30 $19 = $11. The answer is 11.
Q: Jade had $38 and her sister Julia had half as much money she had. On New Year's eve, their aunt gave each of them an equal amount of money so that they had a total of $97. How much did their aunt give each of them?
A: Julia had $38 / 2 = $19. Before their aunt gave them money, Jade and Julia had a total of $38 + $19 = $57. So, the total amount that their aunt gave them was $97 - $57 = $40. Thus, each of them was given $40 / 2 = $20. The answer is 20.
Question: A group of people contains men, women, and children. The number of men is twice the number of women, and the number of women is 3 times the number of children. If the number of children is 30, how many people does this group contain?
Answer: The number of women in the group is 3 women / child * 30 children = 90 women. The number of men in the group is 2 men / woman * 90 women = 180 men. The total number of people in the group is 180 men + 90 women + 30 children = 300 people. The answer is 300.
