Reasoning & answer: CoT: The rancher would have sold his cattle for $204,000 / 340 = $600 per head. He was left with a remainder of 340 - 172 = 168 head of cattle. The lowered price is $600 - $150 = $450 per head. He would make $450 x 168 = $75,600 at the lowered price. He could have made $600 x 168 = $100,800 at the original price. He would lose $100,800 - $75,600 = $25,200.
The answer: 25200
Question: A rancher has 340 head of cattle. He was about to sell them all for $204,000 when 172 of them fell sick and died. Because of the sickness, his customers lost confidence in his cattle, forcing him to lower his price by $150 per head. How much money would the devastated farmer lose if he sold the remaining cattle at the lowered price compared to the amount he would have made by selling them at the original price?

Reasoning & answer: CoT: Jack scored 3 + 5 = 8 points. Together, Jon and Jack scored 8 + 3 = 11 points. So, Tom scored 11 - 4 = 7 points. Thus, Jon, Jack, and Tom scored a total of 3 + 8 + 7 = 18 points.
The answer: 18
Question: In a basketball game, Jon scored 3 points. Jack scored 5 points more than Jon, and Tom scored 4 less than the points of Jon and Jack together. How many points did they score altogether?

Reasoning & answer: CoT: Let s be the number of swordfish and p be the number of pufferfish. We know that s = 5p and s + p = 90. Substituting the first equation into the second equation, we get 5p + p = 90. Combining like terms, we get 6p = 90. Dividing both sides by 6, we get p = 15.
The answer: 15
Question: There are five times as many swordfish as pufferfish in an aquarium exhibit. If there are 90 fish total, how many pufferfish are there?

Reasoning & answer: CoT: He watched 2 * 20 = 40 minutes of Jeopardy. Wheel of Fortune is 2 * 20 = 40 minutes each. So he watched it for 40 * 2 = 80 minutes. So he watched 40 + 80 = 120 minutes of TV. That means he watched 120 / 60 = 2 hours of TV.
The answer: 2
Question:
