Rory has 30 more jellybeans than Gigi who has 15 so Rory has 30 + 15 = 45 jellybeans. Rory has 45 jellybeans and Gigi has 15 so that's 45 + 15 = 60 jellybeans total. Lorelai has eaten three times the amount of jellybeans that both girls have so she has eaten 3 * 60 = 180 jellybeans.
The answer: 180

Reasoning and answer: The mom dog eats 1.5 cups of food * 3 = 4.5 cups per day. For 6 days the mom dog will need 6 * 4.5 cups = 27 cups of food. The puppies eat 1 / 2 cup of food * 2 = 1 cup per day. There are 5 puppies * 1 cup = 5 cups per day for the puppies. For the 6 days, the puppies will need 5 cups * 6 = 30 cups of food. Combined the dogs will need 27 cups + 30 cups = 57 cups.
The answer: 57

There are 4 levels * 100 spots = 400 possible parking spots. The second level has 58 open spots + 2 = 60 open spots. The third level has 60 open spots + 5 = 65 open spots. Total open spots are 58 + 60 + 65 + 31 = 214 open spots. If there are 400 possible spots 214 open spots = 186 full spots.
The answer: 186

Reasoning and answer: It took Leo 25 x 2 = 50 minutes to finish the second part of the assignment. Leo finished the first and second parts of the assignment in 25 + 50 = 75 minutes. He finished the entire assignment in 60 x 2 = 120 minutes. Therefore, it took Leo 120 - 75 = 45 minutes to finish the third part of the assignment.
The answer: 45
What was the question?
Question:
Leo's assignment was divided into three parts. He finished the first part of his assignment in 25 minutes. It took him twice as long to finish the second part. If he was able to finish his assignment in 2 hours, how many minutes did Leo finish the third part of the assignment?
