Question: I went to the music shop and there were CDs of The Life Journey for $100, A Day a Life for $50, and When You Rescind for $85 on display. If I bought 3 of each CD to share with my friends, what's the total amount of money I spent in the shop?
Answer: The total cost of The Life Journey is 3 $100 = $300. The total cost of When You Rescind is 3 $85 = $255. The total cost of A Day a Life is 3 $50 = $150. The total cost for all the CDs is $150 + $255 + $300 = $705. The answer is 705.

Question: Ethyl bought Lucy two new dolls for her doll collection. This increased the doll collection by 25%. After the addition of the two new dolls, how many dolls are in Lucy's collection?
Answer: Let's let "x" be the original number of dolls in Lucy's doll collection. Then, 2 dolls equals an increase of 25%, and this can be written as x * 0.25 = 2. Solving for x we get x = 2 / 0.25 = 8 dolls in Lucy's original collection. After the gift of two new dolls, Lucy's collection contains 8 + 2 = 10 dolls. The answer is 10.
[Question]A captain steers his ship 100 miles north on the first day of their journey. On the second day, he sails to the east three times as far as the distance as he covered on the first day. On the third day, the ship travels further east for 110 more miles than the distance it covered on the second day. What is the total distance the ship has traveled in the three days?
[Answer]If the ship traveled 100 miles to the north, it sailed for a distance of 3 * 100 miles = 300 miles to the east on the second day. On the third day, the sheep sailed for 300 miles + 110 miles = 410 miles. The distance covered by the ship in the three days is 410 miles + 300 miles + 100 miles = 810 miles. The answer is 810.
