[Question]Karen had the giant box of crayons, containing twice as many crayons as were in Beatrice's box. But Beatrice's box contained twice as many crayons as were in Gilbert's box of crayons. And Gilbert had four times as many crayons as were in Judah's box of crayons. If Karen's box contained 128 crayons, how many crayons were in Judah's box?
[Answer]If Karen's 128 crayons were twice as many as were in Beatrice's box, there were 128 / 2 = 64 crayons in Beatrice's box. And since Beatrice's box contained twice as many crayons as were in Gilbert's box of crayons, then Gilbert had 64 / 2 = 32 crayons. And since Gilbert had four times as many crayons as Judah, then Judah had 32 / 4 = 8 crayons. The answer is 8.

[Question]Annie plants 3 pots of basil, 9 pots of rosemary, and 6 pots of thyme. Each basil plant has 4 leaves, each rosemary plant has 18 leaves, and each thyme plant has 30 leaves. How many leaves are there total?
[Answer]
First find the total number of basil leaves: 3 pots * 4 leaves / pot = 12 leaves. Then find the total number of rosemary leaves: 9 pots * 18 leaves / pot = 162 leaves. Then find the total number of thyme leaves: 6 pots * 30 leaves / pot = 180 leaves. Then add the number of each type of leaf to find the total number of leaves: 12 leaves + 162 leaves + 180 leaves = 354 leaves. The answer is 354.
