Q: Dream's car consumes 4 gallons of gas per mile. If she drives 400 miles today and 200 more miles tomorrow than today, how many gallons of gas will the car consume?
A: If she drives 400 miles today, the car will have consumed 4 * 400 = 1600 gallons of gas. Tomorrow, if she drives 200 more miles, the total distance will be 200 + 400 = 600 miles. The fuel consumption by the car tomorrow is 4 * 600 = 2400 gallons. The car's total fuel consumption in the two days is 2400 + 1600 = 4000 gallons. The answer is 4000.
Question: On our last vacation, I bought 4 times as many tetras as Tim bought clowns. Tim bought twice as many clowns as Rick bought guppies. If Rick bought 30 guppies, how many animals did we buy on our last vacation?
Answer: If Rick bought 30 guppies, Tim bought 2 clowns / guppy * 30 guppies = 60 clowns. The total number of tetras bought by you is 4 tetras / clown * 60 clowns = 240 tetras. In total, the three bought 240 tetras + 60 clowns + 30 guppies = 330 animals. The answer is 330.
[Question]Sam, Sid, and Steve brought popsicle sticks for their group activity in their Art class. Sam has thrice as many as Sid, and Sid has twice as many as Steve. If Steve has 12 popsicle sticks, how many popsicle sticks can they use for their Art class activity?
[Answer]Sid has 12 x 2 = 24 sticks. Sam has 24 x 3 = 72 sticks. Thus, they have 24 + 72 + 12 = 108 popsicle sticks. The answer is 108.
Q: Amiyah is cutting some trees to build a cow shade. For every tree she cuts, she plants 5 new trees. If there were 400 trees on her farm and she cut 20% of them, calculate the total number of trees on the farm.
A: The number of trees that Amiyah cut is 20 / 100 * 400 = 80. The number of trees remaining on the farm after she cut 80 trees is 400 - 80 = 320. For every tree that Amiyah cut, she plants 5 new trees, and since she cut 80 trees, she planted 80 * 5 = 400 new trees. The total number of trees on the farm is now 320 + 400 = 720 trees. The answer is 720.
Question: Jason and Jeremy want to paint their wall white and agreed to split the cost of the paint. A gallon of paint costs $45 and can cover up to 400 square feet. How much will each of them contribute to the cost of the paint if their walls have a total area of 1600 square feet and will need a second coat?
Answer: They need 1600 square feet / 400 square feet / gallon = 4 gallons of paint for their walls. Since they will do a second coating, then they would need 4 gallons x 2 = 8 gallons in all. Eight gallons of paint will cost $45 / gallon x 8 gallons = $360. Thus, Jason and Jeremy will each contribute $360 / 2 = $180. The answer is 180.
Q: At the aquarium, there are twice as many sharks as stingrays. If there are 28 stingrays, how many fish are there?
A:
If sharks are twice the number of stingrays, then the number of sharks at the aquarium is 2 sharks / stingray * 28 stingrays = 56 sharks. The number of fish in the tank is 56 sharks + 28 stingrays = 84 fish. The answer is 84.
