Question: The movie theater sells matinee tickets for $5, evening tickets for $12, and 3D tickets for $20. If they sell 200 matinee tickets, 300 evening tickets and 100 3D tickets, how much money do they make in total?
Answer: First find the total revenue from the matinee tickets: $5 / ticket * 200 tickets = $1000. Then find the total revenue from the evening tickets: $12 / ticket * 300 tickets = $3600. Then find the total revenue from the 3D tickets: $20 / ticket * 100 tickets = $2000. Then add the cost of each group of tickets to find the total cost: $1000 + $3600 + $2000 = $6600. The answer is 6600.

Question: Taylor and his friends decide to bring their pets together for a walk. 3 of his friends come first, each having twice as many pets as Taylor has. Another two of his friends have 2 pets each. If Taylor has 4 pets, what's the total number of pets they have together?
Answer: If Taylor has 4 pets, and each of his first friends brings twice as much, the total for each friend is 4 * 2 = 8 pets. The total number of pets for Taylor's first friends is 8 * 3 = 24 pets. The other two friends brought two pets each, a total of 2 * 2 = 4 pets. The total number of pets will be Taylor's pets plus his friend's, which is 4 + 4 + 24 = 32 pets. The answer is 32.

Question: A passenger train transports passengers between two stations located in two separate cities. On a particular day, the train carried 100 passengers from one station to the other one way, and on the return trip carried 60 passengers. If the train made three more round trips that day, taking the same number of people as the first trip in each trip, calculate the total number of passengers transported between both stations?
Answer: The total number of people transported in the first trip is 100 one way + 60 on the return trip = 160 people. If the train made three more round trips that day carrying the same number of passengers in each trip as the first, it carried a total of 3 * 160 = 480 in all three round trips. In total, the train carried 160 + 480 = 640 people over all its trips that day. The answer is 640.

Question: A small zoo houses a variety of 68 wild animals. After they send a gorilla family of six to a different zoo, they adopt a hippopotamus from another zoo. A while later, an animal rescue contacted them, and the zoo took in three endangered rhinos. Then one of their lionesses gave birth to cubs, and they opened a meerkat exhibit with twice as many meerkats as they had gained lion cubs. The zoo then had 90 animals in all. How many lion cubs were born at the zoo?
Answer:
Let C be the number of lion cubs. There are 2C meerkats in the new exhibit. The zoo sent 4 gorillas away, so they had 68 - 6 = 62 animals left. They adopted a hippopotamus, so they had 62 + 1 = 63 animals. They took in 3 rhinos, so they had 63 + 3 = 66 animals. Thus, they had 90 - 66 = 24 new lion cubs and meerkats. Therefore, they had C + 2C = 3C = 24 new lion cubs as meerkats. Hence, there were C = 24 / 3 = 8 lion cubs born. The answer is 8.
