Question: Zion is 8 years old and his dad is 3 more than 4 times his age. In 10 years, how many years older is Zion's dad than him?
Answer: Four times Zion's age is 8 x 4 = 32. So Zion's dad is 32 + 3 = 35 years old. In 10 years, Zion will be 8 + 10 = 18 years old. In 10 years, Zion's dad will be 35 + 10 = 45 years old. Hence, in 10 years, Zion's dad will be 45 - 18 = 27 years older than Zion. The answer is 27.

[Question]Jenson and Kingsley have a tailoring business. Jenson makes 3 shirts, and Kingsley makes 5 pairs of pants per day. If each shirt uses 2 yards of fabric and a pair of pants uses 5 yards of fabric, how many yards of fabric do they need every 3 days?
[Answer]
Jenson uses 2 x 3 = 6 yards of fabric for making shirts every day. Kingsley uses 5 x 5 = 25 yards of fabric every day for making pair of pants. So, the total yards of fabric they use per day is 25 + 6 = 31. Therefore, the total yards of fabric they use every 3 days is 31 x 3 = 93. The answer is 93.
