Question: Lucille made an agreement with her mom that she would earn six cents for every weed she pulled in her mom's garden. There are eleven weeds in the flower bed, fourteen in the vegetable patch, and thirty-two in the grass around the fruit trees. Lucille weeded the flower bed, the vegetable patch, and half the grass before she took a break. She bought a soda for 99 cents on her break with some of her earnings. How many cents does Lucille have left?
Answer: Lucille weeded half the grass, so she pulled 32 / 2 = 16 weeds around the fruit frees. She pulled 11 + 14 + 16 = 41 weeds before her break. From that, she earned 41 * 6 = 246 cents. After buying her soda, Lucille has 246 - 99 = 147 cents left. The answer is 147.
[Question]Emmett does 12 jumping jacks, 8 pushups, and 20 situps. What percentage of his exercises were pushups?
[Answer]First find the total number of exercises Emmett does: 12 jumping jacks + 8 pushups + 20 situps = 40 exercises.

Q: Fred has 12 identical candy bars, and Uncle Bob has 6 more. If Jacqueline has ten times the total number of candy bars Fred and Uncle Bob have, what's 40% of Jacqueline's candy bars?
A: If Fred has 12 identical candy bars, uncle Bob has 12 + 6 = 18 candy bars. Together, Fred and Uncle Bob have 12 + 18 = 30 candy bars. Jacqueline has ten times the total number of candy bars Fred and Uncle Bob have, meaning she has 10 * 30 = 300 candy bars. 40% of Jacqueline's candy bars is 40 / 100 * 300 = 120. The answer is 120.
Question: The fall semester lasts 15 weeks. During the weekdays, Paris studies 3 hours a day for her classes. On the weekends, she spends 4 hours studying on Saturday and 5 hours studying on Sunday. How much time does Paris study during the semester?
Answer: During the weekdays, Paris studies 3 hours a day for 5 * 3 = 15 hours. She studies 4 hours on Saturday and 5 hours on Sunday for a total of 4 + 5 = 9 hours on the weekends. If she studies 15 hours during the weekdays and 9 hours on the weekends then she studies 15 + 9 = 24 hours per week. There are 15 weeks in the fall semester and she studies 24 hours a week so she will spend 15 * 24 = 360 hours studying. The answer is 360.

[Answer]Brayden and Gavin scored 7 touchdowns * 7 points each = 49 points. Cole and Freddy scored 9 touchdowns * 7 points each = 63 points. Cole and Freddy's team had 63 - 49 points = 14 points more than Brayden and Gavin's team. The answer is 14.
[Question]Levi and his brother were playing basketball. Levi had scored 8 times and his brother had scored 12 times. Levi was determined to beat his brother by at least 5 baskets. How many more times does Levi have to score in order to reach his goal if his brother scores another 3 times?
[Answer]
Altogether, Levi's brother scores 12 + 3 = 15 times. If Levi wants to beat him by 5, he needs to score a total of 15 + 5 = 20 times. Levi needs to score another 20 - 8 = 12 times. The answer is 12.
