[Question]A factory manufactures cars with 5 doors. The factory was planning to produce 200 cars but due to metal shortages, they decreased the production by 50 cars. Due to a pandemic, they also had to cut production by another 50%. How many doors will the factory produce?
[Answer]The factory due to shortages will produce 200 - 50 = 150 cars. Due to the pandemic, they will now produce 150 / 2 = 75 cars. The company will have to manufacture 75 * 5 = 375 doors. The answer is 375.
Q: James gets a fleet of gas transportation vans. He gets 6 vans. 2 of them are 8000 gallons. 1 of them is 30% less than that. The remaining trucks are 50% larger than the 2 trucks. How many gallons can he transport?
A: His smaller truck is 8000 * .3 = 2400 gallons smaller. So it can transport 8000 - 2400 = 5600 gallons. There are 6 - 2 - 1 = 3 of the very large trucks. Those trucks are each 8000 * .5 = 4000 gallons larger. So they can transport 8000 + 4000 = 12000 gallons. So in total they transport 3 * 12000 = 36000. The 8000 - gallon trucks can transport 8000 * 2 = 16000 gallons. So in total he can transport 5600 + 16000 + 36000 = 57600 gallons. The answer is 57600.
Question: Mr. McNeely takes a register of the total number of students present in class every day. On a particular week, the number of students in the class on the second day was 40 more than the first day. The number of students who didn't turn up for the class on the second day was twice the number of students who didn't turn up on the third day. On the third day, 1/7 of the total number of students of the class called in sick. If the total number of students in the class is 280, calculate the number of absent students in the three days.
Answer: On the third day, 1 / 7 * 280 = 40 students called in sick. If the number of students absent on the second day was twice the number on the third day, then 2 * 40 = 80 students didn't show up for the class on the second day. The total number of students present in the class on the second day was 280 - 80 = 200. If 40 fewer students showed up for the class on the first day than on the second day, then 200 - 40 = 160 students showed up for the class on the first day. The number of students absent on the first day is 280 - 160 = 120. In the three days, the total number of absentees is 120 + 80 + 40 = 240. The answer is 240.

Question: Sam and Jeff had a skipping competition at recess. The competition was split into four rounds. Sam completed 1 more skip than Jeff in the first round. Jeff skipped 3 fewer times than Sam in the second round. Jeff skipped 4 more times than Sam in the third round. Jeff got tired and only completed half the number of skips as Sam in the last round. If Sam skipped 16 times in each round, what is the average number of skips per round completed by Jeff?
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.

In round one, Jeff completed 16 - 1 = 15. In round two, Jeff completed 16 - 3 = 13. In round three, Jeff completed 16 + 4 = 20. In round four, Jeff completed 16 / 2 = 8. Jeff completed 15 + 13 + 20 + 8 = 56 skips in total. Jeff skipped an average of 56 / 4 = 14 skips per round. The answer is 14.
