Q: Bill is a painter who is hired to paint a client's house. The house has three bedrooms, and twice as many other rooms as bedrooms. The client wants each bedroom painted a different color, and the other rooms painted white. Each room takes 2 gallons of paint. Color paint comes in 1-gallon paint cans, and white paint comes in 3-gallon cans. How many cans of paint will Bill need for the whole house?
A: Bill needs 2 * 3 = 6 gallons of color paint for the 3 bedrooms. Thus, he needs 6 / 1 = 6 cans of color paint for the bedrooms. There are 2 * 3 = 6 other rooms in the house. He needs 2 * 6 = 12 gallons of white paint for the other rooms. Thus, he needs 12 / 3 = 4 cans of white paint. In all, Bill needs 4 + 6 = 10 cans of paint for the whole house. The answer is 10.

Q: Jade and Krista went on a road trip for 3 days. On each day Jade had to drive 8 hours and Krista had to drive 6 hours to arrive at the destination. How many hours did they drive altogether?
A: Jade drives for a total of 3 days x 8 hours / day = 24 hours. Krista drives for a total of 3 days x 6 hours / day = 18 hours. Together they drive 24 hours + 18 hours = 42 hours. The answer is 42.

Q: Emery's family decides to travel for a weekend trip. They drive the first 100 miles in 1 hour. They stop at a McDonald's and then continue the rest of the journey for 300 miles. What's the total number of hours they traveled?
A:
If the first 100 miles took one hour, then let's say the next 300 miles took x hours. if 100 miles = 1 hour, then 300 miles = x. To find the number of hours traveled for the 300 miles, x = 300 * 1 / 100. x = 3 hours. The total number of hours will be 3 + 1 = 4 hours. The answer is 4.
