The bass weigh 6 * 2 = 12 pounds in all. The salmon weigh 2 * 12 = 24 pounds in all. The trout, bass, and salmon together weigh 8 + 12 + 24 = 44 pounds. Each camper will eat 2 pounds of fish, so Patricia and Jeffrey can feed 44 / 2 = 22 campers.
The answer: 22
Reverse engineering the question: Patricia and Geoffrey went fishing to feed their group of campers. They caught an eight-pound trout, six two-pound bass, and two twelve-pound salmon. If each person will eat two pounds of fish, how many campers can they feed?

Percentage means per 100, so if she still owes 75%, she must have paid 100% - 75% = 25% of the original amount. 25% of the original amount = (25 / 100) * original amount = $125. Multiplying both sides by (100 / 25) gives: original amount = (100 / 25) * $125 = $500.
The answer: 500
Reverse engineering the question: Mathilda is determined to pay back the money she owes a friend so she decides to pay an initial installment of $125. If she still has 75% left to pay, how much did she owe originally?

Let P be the number of pages of the first issue of the comic. The second issue is the same number of pages, so the first and second issues are P + P = 2P pages. The third issue is 4 pages longer, so it is P + 4 pages. All three issues are 2P + P + 4 = 3P + 4 = 220 pages long. Thus, 3P = 220 - 4 = 216 pages. Therefore, the first issue of the comic was P = 216 / 3 = 72 pages.
The answer: 72
Reverse engineering the question: Trevor is a comic book illustrator. In the past three months, he has drawn 220 pages of the comic. The comic he illustrates releases a new issue once a month. The first and second months' issues were the same number of pages, but the third month's issue was four pages longer than either of the others. How many pages was the first issue of the comic?

Over the three weeks, they will have watched a total of 10 + 8 + 12 = 30 hours of television. The average number of hours per week is 30 hours / 3 = 10 hours of television.
The answer: 10
Reverse engineering the question:
Evelyn's family watched 10 hours of television last week. The week before, they watched 8 hours of television. If they watch 12 hours of television next week, what is the average number of hours of television that they watch per week?
