Question and rationale: The question is: Sabrina gave 10 cookies to her brother. Her mother gave Sabrina half the number of cookies she gave her brother. Then Sabrina gave two-thirds of her cookies to her sister. If Sabrina had 20 cookies at the start, how many cookies are left with her?
Step-by-step reasoning process: Sabrina had 20 - 10 = 10 cookies left after giving 10 cookies to her brother. Sabrina's mother gave her 10 / 2 = 5 cookies. So, she had 10 + 5 = 15 cookies then. She gave 15 x 2 / 3 = 10 cookies to her sister. Therefore, she only has 15 - 10 = 5 cookies left.

Question and rationale: The question is: Kimberly went hiking and took a 4-liter bottle full of water with her. The first time she drank from it, she consumed a quarter of the water in the bottle. Later on, she drank 2/3rd of the remaining water. How much water is left in the bottle (in liters)?
Step-by-step reasoning process: Her first drink consumed 1 / 4 * 4 = 1 liter of water. Thus there were 4 - 1 = 3 liters of water left in the bottle. Next, she drank 2 / 3 * 3 = 2 liters. Thus, there were 3 - 2 = 1 liters remaining.

Question and rationale: The question is: Jake and Penny are hunting snakes. Jake's snake is 12 inches longer than Jenny's snake. If the two snakes have a combined length of 70 inches, how long is Jake's snake?
Step-by-step reasoning process: Let j be the length of Jake's snake and p be length of Penny's snake. We know that j + p = 70, and j = p + 12. We can substitute the second equation into the first equation to get p + 12 + p = 70. Combining like terms, we get 2p + 12 = 70. Subtracting 12 from both sides, we get 2p = 58. Dividing both sides by 2, we get p = 58 / 2 = 29 inches. Penny's snake is 29 inches. Substituting that length in to the equation j = p + 12, we get j = 29 inches + 12 inches = 41 inches.

Question and rationale:
The question is: Annie is trying to figure out whether it's safe to drive her truck. For every 3 degrees the temperature drops below 32 degrees, Annie's chances of skidding on ice increase 5%. If she goes into a skid, she has a 40% of regaining control. Otherwise, she'll have a serious accident. If the temperature is 8 degrees, what is the percentage chance of Annie getting into a serious accident if she drives?
Step-by-step reasoning process: First find how many degrees below 32 the temperature is: 32 degrees - 8 degrees = 24 degrees. Then divide that amount by the number of degrees per 5% increase in skid risk to find how many 5% increases there are: 24 degrees / 3 degrees / 5% increase = 8 5% increases. Multiply the number of increases by 5% to find the total increase in skid risk: 8 * 5% = 40%. Now find the chance that Annie has a serious accident if she goes into a skid by subtracting the chance she regains control from 100%: 100% - 40% = 60%. Finally, multiply the chance of going into a skid by the chance of having a serious accident after a skid to find the total risk of a serious accident: 60% * 40% = 24%.
