Q: Mr Castiel prepared 600 boar sausages on the weekend. He ate 2/5 of them on Monday, half of the remaining on Tuesday and saved the rest for Friday. If he ate 3/4 of the remaining boar sausages on Friday, how many sausages are left?
A: On Monday, Mr Castiel ate 2 / 5 * 600 = 240 sausages. The remaining number of sausages after he ate 240 on Monday is 600 - 240 = 360. On Tuesday, he ate half of the remaining sausages, a total of 360 / 2 = 180. The remaining number of sausages that he saved for Friday after eating 180 on Tuesday is 360 - 180 = 180. On Friday, Mr Castiel ate 3 / 4 * 180 = 135 of the sausages he had kept. The remaining number of sausages after he ate 135 on Friday is 180 - 135 = 45. The answer is 45.
Question: Half of Taylor's house guests like weak coffee and the other half like strong coffee in the morning. Taylor uses 1 tablespoon of coffee per cup of water to make it weak and he doubles that amount to make it strong. If he makes 12 cups of both weak and strong coffee, how many tablespoons of coffee will he need?
Answer: He uses 1 tablespoon for weak coffee and doubles that for strong so the strong uses 1 * 2 = 2 tablespoons. For the weak coffee he uses 1 tablespoon per 1 cup of water and he needs to make 12 cups so he'll use 1 * 12 = 12 tablespoons. For the strong coffee he uses 2 tablespoons per 1 cup of water and he needs to make 12 cups so he'll use 2 * 12 = 24 tablespoons. All total he will use 12 tablespoons for the weak coffee and 24 tablespoons for the strong coffee for a total of 12 + 24 = 36 tablespoons. The answer is 36.

Q: Kara has to drink 4 ounces of water every time she takes her medication. Her medication instructions are to take one tablet three times a day. She followed the instructions for one week, but in the second week, she forgot twice on one day. How many ounces of water did she drink with her medication over those two weeks?
A: Kara drinks 4 * 3 = 12 ounces of water with her medication each day. In a week, she drinks 12 * 7 = 84 ounces of water with her medication. In two weeks, she drinks 84 * 2 = 168 ounces of water with her medication. One day, she forgot two tablets, so she did not drink 2 * 4 = 8 ounces of water. Thus, Kara drank 168 - 8 = 160 ounces of water with her medication over two weeks. The answer is 160.
Question: In her bakery, Teal sells pumpkin pie and custard pie by the slice. The pumpkin pie is cut into 8 pieces. The custard pie is cut into 6 pieces. Pumpkin pie is $5 a slice. Custard pie is $6 a slice. If Teal sells 4 pumpkin pies and 5 custard pies, how much money does she make from her sales?
Answer: Teal sells 8 x 4 = 32 pumpkin slices. She sells 6 x 5 = 30 custard slices. Pumpkin pie slice sales make 32 x $5 = $160. Custard pie slice sales make 30 x $6 = $180. Total amount of money she makes is $160 + $180 = $340. The answer is 340.
