Step-by-step reasoning process: A bag of feed is enough for 10 chickens because 20 / 2 = 10. Each chicken costs $.2 to raise because 2 / 10 = .2. Each chicken results in $1.3 of profit because 1.5 - .2 = 1.3. He sells 50 chickens because 65 / 1.3 = 50.

The answer is 50

Step-by-step reasoning process: If yesterday the number of buyers was half the number of buyers the day before, then yesterday there were 1 / 2 * 50 = 25 buyers. Today has 40 more buyers than yesterday, so there were 40 + 25 = 65 buyers today. The total number of buyers in the store for the three days will be 65 + 25 + 50 = 140 buyers.
[Q & A] The question is There are 40 more buyers in the grocery store today than yesterday. There were half the number of buyers yesterday as there were the day before, and the day before had 50 buyers. Nobody visited the store on more than one day. What's the total number of buyers who've visited the store in the three days?
The answer is 140

Step-by-step reasoning process: The two bags of cat food weigh 2 x 3 = 6 pounds. Each bag of dog food weighs 3 + 2 = 5 pounds. So two bags of dog food weigh 2 x 5 = 10 pounds. Thus, Mrs. Anderson bought 6 + 10 = 16 pounds of pet food. And 16 pounds is equal to 16 x 16 = 256 ounces.
[Q & A]
The question is Mrs. Anderson bought 2 bags of 3-pound bag of cat food and another 2 bags of dog food that each weigh 2 more pounds than each bag of cat food. There are 16 ounces in each pound. How many ounces of pet food did Mrs. Anderson buy?
