[Question]Jason and Jeremy want to paint their wall white and agreed to split the cost of the paint. A gallon of paint costs $45 and can cover up to 400 square feet. How much will each of them contribute to the cost of the paint if their walls have a total area of 1600 square feet and will need a second coat?
[Answer]They need 1600 square feet / 400 square feet / gallon = 4 gallons of paint for their walls. Since they will do a second coating, then they would need 4 gallons x 2 = 8 gallons in all. Eight gallons of paint will cost $45 / gallon x 8 gallons = $360. Thus, Jason and Jeremy will each contribute $360 / 2 = $180. The answer is 180.

[Question]Rory has 30 more jellybeans than her sister Gigi who has 15 jellybeans. Lorelai has already eaten three times the number of jellybeans that both girls have. How many jellybeans has Lorelai eaten?
[Answer]Rory has 30 more jellybeans than Gigi who has 15 so Rory has 30 + 15 = 45 jellybeans. Rory has 45 jellybeans and Gigi has 15 so that's 45 + 15 = 60 jellybeans total. Lorelai has eaten three times the amount of jellybeans that both girls have so she has eaten 3 * 60 = 180 jellybeans. The answer is 180.

[Question]Terry's mom brought home 4 different colored dogs from the shelter. The brown dog weighs 4 pounds. The black dog weighs 1 pound more than the brown dog. The white dog weighs twice as much as the brown dog. The grey dog weighs 2 pounds less than the black dog. What's the average weight of all the dogs?
[Answer]
Since the black dog weighs 1 pound more than the brown dog, the black dog weighs 1 + 4 = 5 pounds. The white dog weighs 4 * 2 = 8 pounds. Because the grey dog weighs 2 pounds less than the black dog, the grey dog weighs 5 - 2 = 3 pounds. The total weight of all dogs is 4 + 5 + 8 + 3 = 20 pounds. The average weight of all the dogs is 20 / 4 = 5 pounds. The answer is 5.
