Matthew rode 350 feet to the first sign, so there are 1000 - 350 = 650 feet between the first sign and the end. After passing the second sign Matthew road 275, so 650 - 275 = 375 feet remain.
The answer: 375
Reverse engineering the question: Matt rode his bike away from the house, he rode a total of 1000 feet. Along the way, he passed a stop sign that was 350 feet away from his house. He continued his ride and passed a second sign. After passing the second sign he road an additional 275 feet. How many feet are between the first and second signs?
Reasoning and answer: The number of yellow chairs is 5 chairs 4 = 20 chairs. The number of blue chairs is 20 chairs 2 chairs = 18 chairs. There are 5 chairs + 20 chairs + 18 chairs = 43 chairs in Susan's house.
The answer: 43
What was the question?
Question: Susan loves chairs. In her house there are red chairs, yellow chairs, and blue chairs. There are 5 red chairs. There are 4 times as many yellow chairs as red chairs, and there are 2 fewer blue chairs than yellow chairs. How many chairs are there in Susan's house?
There are twenty - two people in a waiting room, and if three more people arrive, the number increases to 22 + 3 = 25. If three more people arrive, the number of people in the waiting room becomes five times the number of people that are inside the interview room, meaning there are 25 / 5 = 5 people inside the interview room.
The answer: 5
Reverse engineering the question: There are twenty-two people in a waiting room. If three more people arrive, the number of people in the waiting room becomes five times the number of people inside the interview room. How many people are in the interview room?
Reasoning and answer: 15 bottles of cola is a cost of 15 * 3 = $45. 12 bottles of juice make up to 12 * 1.5 = $18. As each of the 25 sold water bottles was $1, the shop made a total of 45 + 18 + 25 = $88.
The answer: 88
What was the question?
Question: In a certain country store, there are three kinds of bottled drinks. A cola, which costs $3, a juice for $1.5, and water for $1 per bottle. One day the store was able to sell 15 bottles of cola, 25 bottles of water, and 12 bottles of juice. How much did the shop earn?
Cristian eats 3 / 4 * 80 = 60 white cookies from the jar, 3 / 4 of the total number of white cookies in the cookie jar. The number of white cookies remaining in the cookie jar is 80 - 60 = 20. In his cookie jar, Cristian also has 80 + 50 = 130 black cookies. He eats 1 / 2 * 130 = 65 black cookies from the cookie jar. He remains with 130 - 65 = 65 black cookies after eating half of them. In total, Cristian has 65 + 20 = 85 cookies remaining in the jar.
The answer: 85
Reverse engineering the question: Cristian has 50 more black cookies in his cookie jar than white cookies. He eats half of the black cookies and 3/4 of the white cookies. If he initially had 80 white cookies, how many cookies are remaining within the cookie jar altogether?
