Q: 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?
A: 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: Donna can watch 8 episodes each day during weekdays. On each weekend day, she can watch three times the number of episodes she can watch on the weekdays. How many episodes can she watch in a week?
Answer: Donna can finish a total of 8 x 5 = 40 episodes during the weekdays. Meanwhile, she can finish 8 x 3 = 24 episodes each day during the weekend. The total number of episodes she can watch every weekend is 24 x 2 = 48. Therefore, Donna can watch 40 + 48 = 88 episodes every week. The answer is 88.

Q: Josh gets together with 7 friends. Everyone including him puts 5 dollars into a pot. First place gets 80% of the money. Second and third place split the rest. How much money does third place get?
A: 7 + 1 = 8 people threw money into the pot. So the amount of money in the pot is 8 * 5 = $40. First place gets 40 * .8 = $32. So there is 40 - 32 = $8 left in the pot after first place gets his cut. So third place gets 8 / 2 = $4. The answer is 4.
Question: Mason is trying to download a 880 MB game to his phone. After downloading 310 MB, his Internet connection slows to 3 MB/minute. How many more minutes will it take him to download the game?
Answer: First find how many MB are left to download: 880 MB - 310 MB = 570 MB. Then divide that number by the download speed to find the download time: 570 MB / 3 MB / minute = 190 minutes. The answer is 190.
Q: Nancy and Jason are learning to dance for the first time. Nancy steps on her partner's feet 3 times as often as Jason. If together they step on each other's feet 32 times, how many times does Jason step on his partner's feet?
A:
Let n be the number of times Nancy steps on her partner's feet and j be the number of times Jason does. We know that n = 3j and n + j = 32. Substituting the first equation into the second equation, we get 3j + j = 32. Combining like terms, we get 4j = 32. Dividing both sides by 4, we get j = 8. The answer is 8.
