Reasoning and answer: 6 dogs have 6 x 4 = 24 feet. 2 ducks have 2 x 2 = 4 feet. In total there are 24 + 4 = 28 feet in the garden.
The answer: 28

Question: There are 6 dogs and 2 ducks in the garden. How many feet are there in the garden?
Sarah saved 1 / 3 of her 9 cupcakes to give Michael, so she has 2 / 3 x 9 = 6 cupcakes left. Michael saves 5 of his cookies for Sarah, which she adds to her 6 cupcakes. Sarah has 5 + 6 = 11 desserts.
The answer: 11
Reverse engineering the question: Michael saved 5 of his cookies to give Sarah, who saved a third of her 9 cupcakes to give to Michael. How many desserts does Sarah end up with?
Reasoning and answer: Since Ms. Cole's sixth - level math class has 40 students and four times as many students in her fourth - level class, there are 4 * 40 = 160 in her fourth - level math class. For the two levels, Ms. Cole teaches math to 160 + 40 = 200 students. If the number of students in her seventh - level math class is twice that in the fourth - level math class, then she teaches 2 * 160 = 320 students in the seventh - level math class. Ms. Cole teaches 320 + 200 = 520 math students in the school.
The answer: 520

Question: Ms. Cole teaches math in three levels of classes in her school. There are four times as many students in Ms. Cole's fourth-level math class as in her sixth-level math class. The number of students in her seventh-level math class is twice that in the fourth-level math class. If Ms. Cole's sixth-level class has 40 students, how many math students does Ms. Cole teach?
If each student travels with 5 others, then groups are made up of 5 + 1 = 6 students. This means there are a total of 5 groups * 6 students = 30 students in the class. Each student needs 2 sandwiches, which means the teacher will make 30 students * 2 sandwiches per student = 60 sandwiches in total. Therefore, the teachers will need 60 sandwiches * 2 pieces of bread per sandwich = 120 pieces of bread.
The answer: 120
Reverse engineering the question: A teacher is making packed lunches for a field trip. Each student needs 2 sandwiches, and will travel in a group with 5 other students. There are a total of 5 groups. How many pieces of bread will the teacher need to make enough sandwiches for all the students?
Reasoning and answer: First find the total number of claws the cat has: 4 claws / foot * 4 feet = 16 claws. Then find the total time Nissa spends cutting the claws: 16 claws * 10 seconds / claw = 160 seconds. Then find the total time she spends cleaning the cats' ears: 90 seconds / ear * 2 ears = 180 seconds. Then find how long the shampooing takes in seconds: 5 minutes * 60 seconds / minute = 300 seconds. Then add the time she spends on each task to find the total time she spends grooming the cat: 160 seconds + 180 seconds + 300 seconds = 640 seconds.
The answer: 640

Question: It takes Nissa 10 seconds to clip each of her cats' nails. 90 seconds to clean each of her ears, and 5 minutes to shampoo her. If the cat has four claws on each foot, how many seconds does grooming her cat take total?
Reasoning and answer: If the blue car can travel at 80 mph, then the green one can travel at 8 * 80 = 640 mph. If the green car can travel at 640 mph, then the red can travel at 2 * 640 = 1280 mph.
The answer: 1280

Question:
Dale owns 4 sports cars. The red one can travel at twice the speed of the green one, but the green one can travel at 8 times the speed of the blue one. The yellow one is broken and cannot move at all. If the blue one can travel at a speed of 80 miles per hour, at what speed, in miles per hour, can the red car travel?
