Question: Max has 8 children and each of his children has the same number of children as he does except for 2 who have 5 children each. How many grandchildren does he have?
Answer: Out of his 8 children, 2 have only 5 children so the rest who have 8 ( the same number as him) are 8 - 2 = 6. 6 of Max's children have 8 children each for a total of 6 * 8 = 48 grandchildren. 2 of Max's children have 5 children each for a total of 5 * 2 = 10 grandchildren. In total he has 48 + 10 = 58 grandchildren. The answer is 58.
[Question]A cobbler can mend 3 pairs of shoes in an hour. From Monday to Thursday, the cobbler works for 8 hours each day, and on Friday, he only works from 8am to 11am. How many pairs of shoes can the cobbler mend in a week?
[Answer]From Monday to Thursday, the cobbler can mend 3 x 8 = 24 pairs of shoes a day. From Monday to Thursday, he can mend 24 x 4 = 96 pairs of shoes. On Friday, he works for 11 - 8 = 3 hours. On Friday, he can mend 3 x 3 = 9 pairs of shoes. In a week, he can mend 96 + 9 = 105 pairs of shoes. The answer is 105.

[Question]Rhea buys 2 trays of eggs every week for her family. Her son and daughter eat 2 eggs every morning, and Rhea and her husband eat 4 eggs every night. If each tray has 24 eggs, how many eggs are not being eaten every week?
[Answer]
Rhea buys a total of 24 x 2 = 48 eggs every week. Her son and daughter eat 2 x 7 = 14 eggs every week. Rhea and her husband eat 4 x 7 = 28 eggs every week. So, the total eggs they eat is 28 + 14 = 42. Therefore, the total number of eggs that are not being eaten is 48 - 42 = 6. The answer is 6.
