Question: Eunice has 10 eggplant seeds and 4 pots. How many seeds will be planted in the fourth pot if 3 seeds can be planted in 1 pot?
Answer with step-by-step thinking: Eunice can plant a total of 3 pots x 3 seeds = 9 seeds in three pots. So, only 10 - 9 = 1 eggplant seed will be planted in the fourth pot.

Question: Susie babysits every day for 3 hours a day at the rate of $10 per hour. She spent 3/10 of the money she earned from last week to buy a make-up set. She then spent 2/5 of her money on her skincare products. How much is left from her earnings last week, in dollars?
Answer with step-by-step thinking: Susie earned $10 x 3 = $30 per day. Last week, she earned a total of $30 x 7 = $210. She spent $210 x 3 / 10 = $63 on make - up. While she spent $210 x 2 / 5 = $84 on her skincare products. Thus, she spent a total of $63 + $84 = $147 from her earnings. Therefore, Susie is left with $210 - $147 = $63 from her earnings last week.
So the answer is 63.

At 2 pm there are 2 inches of rain in the tank. At 6pm, there are 2 + 4 * 1 = 6 inches of rain in the tank. That means that there are 18 - 6 = 12 inches of tank that still need to be filled as of 6 pm. It will take 12 / 3 = 4 hours to finish filling the tank. The tank will be filled at 6 + 4 = 10pm.
So the answer is 10.
