Question: Travis is hired to take 638 bowls from the factory to the home goods store. The home goods store will pay the moving company a $100 fee, plus $3 for every bowl that is delivered safely. Travis must pay the home goods store $4 each for any bowls that are lost or broken. If 12 bowls are lost, 15 bowls are broken, and the rest are delivered safely, how much should Travis be paid?
Answer: Step-by-step reasoning process: Travis has lost or broken 12 + 15 = 27 bowls. Travis will need to pay the store 27 x $4 = $108 dollars. Travis has safely taken 638 - 27 = 611 bowls. For this, he will be paid 611 x $3 = $1833 dollars. In total Travis will be paid $1833 + $100 = $1933 dollars. Since Travis has to pay the home goods 108 for the broken and lost bowls, he will end up with $1933 - $108 = $1825.
So the answer is 1825.

Question: Nicky went to the DMV. He spent 20 minutes waiting to take a number, and quadruple that amount of time plus 14 minutes waiting for his number to be called. How long did he wait total?
Answer: Step-by-step reasoning process: First find how long Nicky spent waiting for his number to be called: 4 * 20 minutes + 14 minutes = 94 minutes. Then add the time he spent waiting to take a number: 94 + 20 = 114 minutes.
So the answer is 114.

Question: A crate can hold 20 kilograms of tomatoes. Tommy has 3 crates which he bought for $330. He wants to sell the tomatoes for $6 per 1 kilogram but 3 kilograms of tomatoes were rotten. How much will be Tommy's profit from selling those tomatoes?
Answer: Step-by-step reasoning process: Tommy has a total of 20 x 3 = 60 kilograms of tomatoes. Only 60 - 3 = 57 kilograms can be sold. His earnings for the tomatoes will be $342. Thus, his profit will be $342 - $330 = $12.
So the answer is 12.

Question: Kiki made 10 cucumber sandwiches and 8 egg sandwiches for the tea party. Each cucumber sandwich was cut into 4 triangles. Each egg sandwich was cut into 2 rectangles. If her guests ate 28 triangles and 12 rectangles, how many slices of bread did they eat?
Answer:
Step-by-step reasoning process: The guests ate 28 / 4 = 7 cucumber sandwiches. The guests ate 12 / 2 = 6 egg sandwiches. They ate a total of 7 + 6 = 13 sandwiches. They ate a total of 13 x 2 = 26 slices of bread.
So the answer is 26.
