[Question]: The number of cards in a card game was 500. Two friends Ellis and Orion, playing together, divided the cards in the ratio of 11:9. How many more cards did Ellis get than Orion?
[Answer]: The total ratio representing the 500 cards is 11 + 9 = 20. The fraction of the total ratio that represents the number of cards that Ellis got is 11 / 20, and since there were 500 cards, Ellis got 11 / 20 * 500 = 275. If there were 500 cards, and Ellis received 275 cards, Orion received 500 - 275 = 225 cards. The number of cards that Ellis received more than Orion is 275 - 225 = 50 cards.
So the answer is 50.

[Question]: Nancy buys 2 coffees a day. She grabs a double espresso for $3.00 every morning. In the afternoon, she grabs an iced coffee for $2.50. After 20 days, how much money has she spent on coffee?
[Answer]: She gets a double espresso for $3.00 every morning and an iced coffee for $2.50 in the afternoon so she spends 3 + 2.5 = $5.50 every day on coffee. After 20 days, she spends 20 * 5.5 = $110.00 on coffee.
So the answer is 110.

[Question]: There were 100 jelly beans in a bag to be given away on Halloween. Out of the 40 children taking part in the Halloween celebration, 80% were allowed to draw jelly beans from the bag. Each child drew two jelly beans out of the bag. How many jelly beans remained in the bag after the children took their share?
[Answer]:
Out of the 40 children taking part in the Halloween celebration, 80% were allowed to draw jelly beans from the bag, a total of 80 / 100 * 40 = 32 children. If each of the 32 children drew two jelly beans out of the bag, they drew a total of 32 * 2 = 64 jelly beans from the bag. The total number of jelly beans that remained is 100 - 64 = 36.
So the answer is 36.
