A package of candy has 3 servings with 120 calories each. John eats half the package. How many calories did he eat? Give the rationale and then the answer.
Let's think step by step. There were 3 * 120 = 360 calories in the package. So he ate 360 / 2 = 180 calories.. The answer is: 180.

The journey from Abel's house to Alice's house is 35 miles and is divided into 5 equal portions. Abel is driving at a speed of 40 miles per hour. After traveling for 0.7 hours, how many portions of the journey has he covered? Give the rationale and then the answer.
Let's think step by step. 35 miles into 5 equal portions will be 35 / 5 = 7 miles each. Abel traveled at a speed of 40 miles per hour for 0.7 hours so he will cover 40 * 0.7 = 28 miles. 7 miles make a portion so 28 miles is equivalent to 28 / 7 = 4 portions.. The answer is: 4.

Joel's garden is 64 square feet large. He wants to use half of the garden for fruits and half of the garden for vegetables. He wants to use a quarter of the fruit section for strawberries. How many square feet of the garden will be used for strawberries? Give the rationale and then the answer.
Let's think step by step. The number of square feet used for fruit is 64 / 2 = 32 square feet. The number of square feet used for strawberries is 32 / 4 = 8 square feet.. The answer is: 8.
