Consider the Q and A. Q: There were 180 apples in each crate. 12 such crates of apples were delivered to a factory. 160 apples were rotten and had to be thrown away. The remaining apples were packed into boxes of 20 apples each. How many boxes of apples were there?
A: 100
What is the step-by-step reasoning process?
Step-by-step reasoning process: The total number of apples delivered was: 180 apples x 12 crates = 2160 apples. So, the number of remaining apples after throwing away the rotten ones was: 2160 apples 160 apples = 2000 apples. And now, we can find the total number of boxes of apples by dividing the remaining number of apples by the number of apples per box: 2000 apples / 20 apples / box = 100 boxes of apples.

Consider the Q and A. Q: Richard can clean his room in 22 minutes. Cory takes 3 minutes more than Richard to clean her room while Blake can clean his room 4 minutes more quickly than Cory. If they have to clean their rooms twice a week, how many minutes do all three spend cleaning their rooms each week?
A: 136
What is the step-by-step reasoning process?
Step-by-step reasoning process: Cory takes 22 + 3 = 25 minutes to clean her room. Blake takes 25 - 4 = 21 minutes to clean his room. The three of them can clean their room in 22 + 25 + 21 = 68 minutes in all. In a week, they spend 68 x 2 = 136 minutes cleaning their rooms.

Consider the Q and A. Q: Jeanette is practicing her juggling. Each week she can juggle 2 more objects than the week before. If she starts out juggling 3 objects and practices for 5 weeks, how many objects can she juggle?
A: 13
What is the step-by-step reasoning process?
Step-by-step reasoning process: First find the total number of additional objects she learns to juggle: 2 objects / week * 5 weeks = 10 objects. Then add the initial number of objects she could juggle to find the total: 10 objects + 3 objects = 13 objects.

Consider the Q and A. Q: Patsy is gearing up for this weekend's graduation. She needs to have 6 appetizers per each of her 30 guests. She's making 3 dozen deviled eggs, 2 dozen pigs in a blanket and 2 dozen kebabs. How many more dozen appetizers does she need to make?
A: 8
What is the step-by-step reasoning process?
Step-by-step reasoning process:
She needs 6 appetizers per each of her 30 guests so she needs 6 * 30 = 180 appetizers. She's made 3 dozen deviled eggs, 2 dozen pigs in a blanket and 2 dozen kebabs so she's made 3 + 2 + 2 = 7 dozen appetizers. 7 dozen appetizers is 7 * 12 = 84 appetizers. She needs 180 appetizers and has made 84 so she needs 180 - 84 = 96 appetizers. 96 appetizers, in dozens, is 96 / 12 = 8 dozen more appetizers.
