Reasoning and answer: The number of truck stamps is 11 + 9 = 20. The number of rose stamps is 20 13 = 7. Bella bought 11 + 20 + 7 = 38 stamps in all.
The answer: 38
What was the question?
Question: Bella bought stamps at the post office. Some of the stamps had a snowflake design, some had a truck design, and some had a rose design. Bella bought 11 snowflake stamps. She bought 9 more truck stamps than snowflake stamps, and 13 fewer rose stamps than truck stamps. How many stamps did Bella buy in all?
We first need to figure out how many of each type of skeleton there are. Since half the 20 skeletons are adult women, that means there are 20 / 2 = 10 adult women's skeletons. The remaining half, 10, is split between adult men and children, meaning there are 10 / 2 = 5 of each. Since an adult woman has 20 bones in their body, this means that the 10 skeletons have 20 * 10 = 200 bones in total. Since an adult man has 5 more bones in their body than an adult woman, this means they have 20 + 5 = 25 bones in their body. There are 5 adult men, meaning there are 25 * 5 = 125 bones in the adult male skeletons in total. Since a child has half as many bones as the 20 in an adult woman, this means the children have 20 / 2 = 10 bones in their body. Since there are 5 children, this means there are 5 * 10 = 50 bones in the children's skeletons in total. Therefore, altogether there are 50 + 125 + 200 = 375 bones in total in the graveyard.
The answer: 375
Reverse engineering the question: In a graveyard, there are 20 skeletons. Half of these skeletons are adult women, and the remaining number are split evenly between adult men and children. If an adult woman has 20 bones in their body, and a male has 5 more than this, and a child has half as many as an adult woman, how many bones are in the graveyard?
Reasoning and answer: Ali has 7 * $5 = $35 from the seven 5 - dollar bills. So in total, he has $35 + $10 = $45.
The answer: 45

Question: Ali keeps his bills in his wallet. He has 7 bills of 5 dollars and 1 bill of 10 dollars. How much money does he have in total?
First, we need to find the total number of miles Tony will be driving by adding 10 + 15 + 5 = 30 miles in total. To determine the halfway point, we simply divide the total number of miles by 2, performing 30 / 2 = 15 miles driven when Tony is halfway done.
The answer: 15
Reverse engineering the question: Tony has to run several errands in a day. He needs to drive 10 miles to get groceries, 15 miles to get a haircut and 5 miles to go to a doctor's appointment. How many miles will Tony have driven when he is halfway through driving around for his errands?
Reasoning and answer: The second pair of shoes was 50 / 100 * 22 = $11 more expensive. That means that the second pair's price was 22 + 11 = $33. So for both pairs of shoes, Nina paid 33 + 22 = $55.
The answer: 55
What was the question?
Question: Nina has two pairs of shoes. She bought one of them for $22, and the second one was 50% more expensive. How much did Nina pay for both pairs of shoes?
Reasoning and answer: There are 25 + 40 + 35 = 100 flowers total. There are 40 + 35 = 75 flowers that are not roses. Therefore, (75 / 100) * 100 = 75% of the flowers are not roses.
The answer: 75
What was the question?
Question:
There are 25 roses in a garden. There are 40 tulips. There are 35 daisies. What percentage of flowers are not roses?
