The total number of the candies is 30 + 25 + 35 = 90. When the candies are shared equally each one will get 90 / 3 = 30.
The answer: 30

The cake has 8 slices * 347 calories = 2776 calories. The brownies have 6 slices * 375 = 2250 calories. The cake has 2776 calories - 2250 = 526 more calories.
The answer: 526
Reverse engineering the question: A cake has 8 slices and each slice contains 347 calories. A pan of brownies has 6 brownies and each slice contains 375 calories. How many more calories does the cake have?


Reasoning and answer: The number of stores required for the new city is 2000 / 2 = 1000 stores. The number of hospitals required for the new city is 2 * 500 = 1000 hospitals. The number of schools required for the new city is 200 - 50 = 150 schools. The number of police stations required for the new city is 20 + 5 = 25 police stations. The total number of buildings required for this new city project 1000 + 1000 + 150 + 25 = 2175 buildings.
The answer: 2175
What was the question?
Question: Jacob has been tasked with a project to write up an urban plan proposal that will be used to construct a new city. He uses Pittsburg city as a reference which has 2000 stores, 500 hospitals, 200 schools, and 20 police stations. If the new city should have half the number of stores, twice as many hospitals, 50 fewer schools, and 5 more police stations, what is the total number of buildings required for this project?


They visit 4 * 5 = 20 houses. That means each child get 20 * 3 = 60 treats. So in total they get 60 * 3 = 180 treats.
The answer: 180
Reverse engineering the question: Tim takes his 3 children trick or treating. They are out for 4 hours. Each hour they visited 5 houses. Each house gives 3 treats per kid. How many treats do his children get in total?


The zoo has 8 x 3 = 24 snakes. It has 24 x 2 = 48 monkeys. The number of parrots and snakes added up is 8 + 24 = 32. There are 32 / 2 = 16 elephants. There are 16 - 3 = 13 zebras. The difference between zebras and monkeys is 48 - 13 = 35.
The answer: 35
