Q: Tabitha and her friends were excited to go to the Christmas parade because they knew candy would be thrown to the crowd from the floats. Tabitha caught 22 pieces of candy. Stan caught 13 pieces. Julie caught half the amount of candy as Tabitha caught and Carlos caught twice as much candy as Stan. How many pieces in total did the friends catch?
A: Julie caught half the amount of Tabitha's 22 pieces so 22 / 2 = 11 pieces of candy caught by Julie. Carlos caught twice the amount of candy as Stan's 13 pieces so 2 * 13 = 26 pieces of candy caught by Carlos. All together, Tabitha caught 22 pieces, Stan had 13, Julie had 11 and Carlos had 26, so there were a total of 22 + 13 + 11 + 26 = 72 pieces of candy. The answer is 72.
Question: Gloria wants to buy the $129,000 mountain cabin that her friend Alfonso is selling. She only has $150 in cash. She intends to raise the remaining amount by selling her mature trees for lumber. She has 20 cypress trees, 600 pine trees, and 24 maple trees. She will get $100 for each cypress tree, $300 for a maple tree, and $200 per pine tree. After paying Alfonso for the cabin, how much money will Gloria have left?
Answer: The cypress trees will earn Gloria 20 trees * $100 / tree = $2000. From the sale of the cypress trees, Gloria will also make 600 trees * $200 / tree = $120000. Finally, the maple trees will bring in 24 trees * $300 / tree = $7200. Combining all the amounts will give Gloria a total of $150 + $2000 + $120000 + $7200 = $129350. Subtracting the cost of the mountain cabin from the total will leave Gloria with a balance of $129350 - $129000 = $350. The answer is 350.
[Question]Kelly needs school supplies to teach her class for an art project. She has 8 students and they will need 3 pieces of construction paper each. In addition to the construction paper, she needs to buy 6 bottles of glue for everyone to share. After Kelly purchases these supplies, she dropped half of them down a storm drain. Class is about to start, but she manages to rush to the store and buy 5 more pieces of construction paper. How many supplies are left?
[Answer]Kelly needs 8 * 3 = 24 pieces of construction paper. She buys glue which grows the supplies to 24 + 6 = 30. Unfortunately, she dropped 30 / 2 = 15 supplies. Rushing to the store, she buys more construction paper bringing her supplies back to 15 + 5 = 20. The answer is 20.

He bought 5 * 4 = 20 shirts. The discount saves him 15 * .2 = $3 per shirt. So each shirt cost 15 - 3 = $12. So the total order cost 20 * 12 = $240. Tax added 240 * .1 = $24. So he paid 240 + 24 = $264. The answer is 264.
