Q: Brianna started out with a bag of 24 marbles. She lost four marbles through a hole in the bag. Then, she gave away twice as many marbles as she had lost through the hole in the bag. Finally, her dog ate half as many marbles as Brianna had lost through the hole in the bag. How many marbles did Brianna have remaining?
A: Brianna gave away twice as many marbles as she had lost, or a total of 2 * 4 = 8 marbles. Her dog ate half as many marbles as Brianna had lost through the hole in the bag, or 4 / 2 = 2 marbles. If she started with 24 marbles, then the number of marbles remaining is 24 - 4 - 8 - 2 = 10 marbles. The answer is 10.

Q: Marissa is serving her kids lunch. Each kid gets a burger with 400 calories and 5 carrot sticks with 20 calories each, and some cookies with 50 calories each. Marissa wants each kid to eat a total of 750 calories for lunch. How many cookies does each kid get?
A:
First figure out how many total calories come from the carrots by multiplying the calories per carrot by the number of carrots: 20 calories / carrot * 5 carrots = 100 calories. Then subtract the calories the kids have already eaten from the goal number of calories to find out how many more total calories they should eat: 750 calories - 400 calories - 100 calories = 250 calories. Then divide the total number of calories by the calories per cookie to find the number of cookies each kid gets: 250 calories / 50 calories / cookie = 5 cookies. The answer is 5.
