Answer the following question.
Xavier is twice as old as Yasmin is. Xavier will 30 years old in six years. What is the total of their ages now?
Step-by-step reasoning process: If in six years Xavier will be 30 years old, he is 30 - 6 = 24 years old now. If Xavier is twice as old as Yasmin, Yasmin is 24 / 2 = 12 years old. The total of their ages now is 12 + 24 = 36 years.
The answer is 36.

Answer the following question.
Bingo has two dogs. On average, they walk a total of 70 miles a week. The first dog walks an average of 2 miles a day. How many miles a day does the other dog average?
Step-by-step reasoning process: The first dog walks 14 miles in a week because 7 x 2 = 14. The second dog walks 56 miles in a week because 70 - 14 = 56. The second dog walks an average of 8 miles a day because 56 / 7 = 8.
The answer is 8.

Answer the following question.
Abby is building 2 raised beds to grow vegetables. The beds are both 8 feet long, 4 feet wide and 1 foot high. Each bag of soil has 4 cubic feet. How many bags of soil will she need?
Step-by-step reasoning process: One garden bed measures 8ft long, 4ft wide and 1ft high so to find the cubic feet needed, 8 * 4 * 1 = 32 cubic feet of soil needed. Both beds are the same size so she needs 2 * 32 = 64 cubic feet of soil. Every bag has 4 cubic feet of soil and she needs 64 cubic feet so 64 / 4 = 16 bags needed.
The answer is 16.

Answer the following question.
Mancino is tending 3 gardens that each measure 16 feet by 5 feet. His sister, Marquita, is tilling the soil for two gardens that each measure 8 feet by 4 feet. How many square feet combined are in all their gardens?
Step-by-step reasoning process: 3 * (16 * 5) = 240 square feet. 2 * (8 * 4) = 64 square feet. 240 + 64 = 304 square feet. The gardens have a total of 304 square feet.
The answer is 304.
