Q: Donna is catering for a party. She makes 20 sandwiches and then cuts them in half, before cutting them in half again. She then gives everyone 8 portions. How many people can she feed?
A: First, we need to determine the overall number of portions. To do this, we begin by performing 20 * 2 = 40 portions after the first halving. Next, we take this portion number and double it again, performing 40 * 2 = 80 portions after the second halving. Lastly, we divide this portion number by the number of portions each person will be served, performing 80 / 8 = 10 people served. The answer is 10.
Question: Hannah harvests 5 strawberries daily for the next whole month of April, which has 30 days. If she gives away 20 strawberries to her friends and 30 strawberries are stolen, how many strawberries does she have by the end of April?
Answer: Hannah harvests a total of 5 * 30 = 150 strawberries. After giving her friends, Hannah is left with 150 - 20 = 130 strawberries. After some were stolen, Hannah is left with 130 - 30 = 100 strawberries. The answer is 100.
[Question]A church has 100 members who've volunteered to bake cookies for the homeless in their local town. If each member baked 10 sheets of cookies, and each sheet has 16 cookies, calculate the total number of cookies the church members baked?
[Answer]A sheet has 16 cookies, so if each church member baked 10 sheets, they each baked 10 sheets / person * 16 cookies / sheet = 160 cookies / person. The total number of church members who decided to volunteer is 100, so in total, they baked 160 cookies / person * 100 people = 16000 cookies. The answer is 16000.
Q: Two puppies, two kittens, and three parakeets were for sale at the pet shop. The puppies were three times more expensive than the parakeets, and the parakeets were half as expensive as the kittens. If the cost of one parakeet was $10, what would it cost to purchase all of the pets for sale at the pet shop, in dollars?
A: Puppies cost three times more than parakeets, or 3 * $10 = $30 per puppy. Parakeets were half as expensive as the kittens, or 2 * $10 = $20 per kitten. Two puppies cost 2 * $30 = $60. Two kittens cost 2 * $20 = $40. And three parakeets cost 3 * $10 = $30. Thus, the cost to purchase all of the pets for sale at the pet shop is $60 + $40 + $30 = $130. The answer is 130.

The judge dismissed 2 cases, leaving 17 - 2 = 15 cases. Of the remaining 15 cases, 2 / 3 * 15 = 10 were ruled innocent. One ruling was delayed, so the judge ruled guilty on 15 - 10 - 1 = 4 cases. The answer is 4.
