Question: Brinley's teacher took the grade six students to the San Diego Zoo to watch and learn about animals. While at the zoo, Brinley counted 100 snakes, 80 arctic foxes, and 20 leopards. She also saw ten times more bee-eaters than leopards, half as many cheetahs as snakes, and twice as many alligators as the total number of Arctic foxes and leopards. What's the total number of animals Brinley counted at the zoo?
Answer: There were 10 * 20 = 200 more bee - eaters at the zoo. There were 1 / 2 * 100 = 50 cheetahs. The total number of foxes and leopards is 80 + 20 = 100. There were 2 * 100 = 200 alligators. The total number of animals is 200 alligators + 220 bee - eaters + 100 snakes + 80 tactic foxes + 20 leopards + 50 cheetahs = 670 animals. The answer is 670.

Q: There is a fruit display that has apples, oranges, and bananas. There are twice as many apples as oranges, and there are twice as many oranges as bananas. How many fruits are on the display in total if there are 5 bananas on the display?
A: We start by finding out that since there are twice as many oranges as the 5 bananas, this means there are 5 * 2 = 10 oranges. Since there are twice as many apples as the 10 oranges, this means there 10 * 2 = 20 apples. In total, this means there are 20 + 10 + 5 = 35 fruits on the display. The answer is 35.
