Consider the Q and A. Q: Barney washes his kitchen towels once a week. He owns eighteen towels and uses two at a time that he changes to clean towels daily. He missed one week of laundry. How many days the following week will Barney not have clean towels?
A: 5
What is the step-by-step reasoning process?
Step-by-step reasoning process: Barney uses 2 clean towels every day, so he uses 2 * 7 = 14 towels a week. He missed one week of laundry, so he would need 2 * 14 = 28 towels for 2 weeks. He owns 18 towels, so he has 28 - 18 = 10 less than he needs. Thus, Barney will not have clean towels on 10 / 2 = 5 days.

Consider the Q and A. Q: Wanda has 62 crayons. Dina has 28 and Jacob has two fewer crayons than Dina. How many crayons do they have in total?
A: 116
What is the step-by-step reasoning process?
Step-by-step reasoning process: Jacob has 28 - 2 = 26 crayons. You can find the total number of crayons by adding the number of crayons each person has: 26 crayons + 62 crayons + 28 crayons = 116 crayons.

Consider the Q and A. Q: A dragon hoards jewels and gold in its cave. A jealous king snuck in and stole three prize jewels. The dragon burned him to a crisp and stole back its jewels, along with twice as many of the king's crown jewels from his crown that melted in the dragon's fire. The new jewels were a third of the number of jewels the dragon had owned before. How many jewels did the dragon own in the end?
A: 24
What is the step-by-step reasoning process?
Step-by-step reasoning process: The dragon stole 2 * 3 = 6 of the king's crown jewels. The dragon owned 6 * 3 = 18 jewels before the theft. Thus, the dragon owned 18 + 6 = 24 jewels in the end.

Consider the Q and A. Q: Sasha made 30 chocolate muffins for her school bake sale fundraiser. Melissa made 4 times as many muffins as Sasha, and Tiffany made half of Sasha and Melissa's total number of muffins. If one muffin sold for $4, how much money did Sasha, Melissa, and Tiffany contribute to the fundraiser?
A: 900
What is the step-by-step reasoning process?
Step-by-step reasoning process:
Melissa made 30 x 4 = 120 muffins. Together, Melissa and Sasha made 30 + 120 = 150 muffins. Tiffany made 150 / 2 = 75 muffins. Altogether, they made 150 + 75 = 225 muffins. They contributed 225 x $4 = $900 to the fundraiser.
