Question: Amy is building 2 3 ft long by 3 ft wide garden beds and 2 4ft long by 3 ft wide garden beds. What is the total sq ft of growing space that she will have?
Answer: Step-by-step reasoning process: The first bed is 3 feet long by 3 feet wide so it's 3 * 3 = 9 sq ft. She's building 2 beds that are this size so that's 2 * 9 = 18 sq ft of growing space. The second bed is 4 feet long by 3 feet wide so it's 4 * 3 = 12 sq ft. She's building 2 beds that are this size so that's 2 * 12 = 24 sq ft of growing space. The smaller beds are 18 sq ft and the larger beds are 24 sq ft for a total of 18 + 24 = 42 sq ft of growing space.
So the answer is 42.

Question: Charlotte is making a pie. She can't decide if she will make cherry or blueberry. So she decides to make whichever pie is cheapest. Both pies will need $2 for flour, $1 for sugar and $1.5 for eggs and butter to make the crust. The blueberry pie needs 3 pounds of blueberries. The blueberries come in 8 oz containers for $2.25. For the cherry pie, she needs 4 pounds and they come in a four-pound bag for $14. What is the total price to make the cheapest pie?
Answer: Step-by-step reasoning process: The crust will cost $4.5 because 2 + 1 + 1.5 = 4.5. She will need 6 containers for blueberries because 3 x (8 / 16) = 6. The blueberries will cost $13.5 because 6 x 2.25 = 13.5. The blueberries are cheaper because 13.5 < 14. The blueberry pie will cost $18 to make because 4.5 + 13.5 = 18.
So the answer is 18.

Question: Peter is buying a set of glasses. They cost $3 for small glasses and $5 for large ones. He has $50. If he buys 8 small ones and leaves with $1 in change, how many large ones did he buy?
Answer: Step-by-step reasoning process: He spent $49 on glasses because 50 - 49 = 1. He spent $24 on small glasses because 8x3 = 24. He spent $25 on large glasses because 49 - 24 = 25. He bought 5 large glasses because 25 / 5 = 5.
So the answer is 5.

Question: Jenny wants to heat a dish for dinner. It needs to be at 100 degrees before it is ready to eat. It is 20 degrees when she places it in the oven, and it heats up 5 degrees every minute. How many minutes will it take to be ready?
Answer:

Show your work and conclude with the exact phrasing "Therefore, the final answer is [answer]." where [answer] is just the final number or expression that solves the problem.

Step-by-step reasoning process: To determine this, we must first figure out the required change in temperature. To do this, we perform 100 - 20 = 80 degrees of required temperature change. Next, we divide this amount by the rate of change per minute, performing 80 / 5 = 16 minutes of cooking time.
So the answer is 16.
