Colt and Curt prepared 113 meals to be given away to a charity. Unexpectedly, Sole Mart provided 50 more meals. If Colt and Curt have given 85 meals already, how many more meals are left to be distributed? Give the rationale and then the answer.
Let's think step by step. There are 113 + 50 = 163 meals in total. After Colt and Curt gave away 85 meals, there are 163 - 85 = 78 more meals left to be distributed.. The answer is: 78.

If the normal hours of operation of Jean's business are 4 pm to 10p every day Monday through Friday, and from 6 pm to 10 pm on weekends, how many hours is the business open in a week? Give the rationale and then the answer.
Let's think step by step. First, we find the number of hours per weekday by subtracting the smaller number time from the larger one, finding 10 - 4 = 6 hours per weekday. As there are 5 weekdays, this means the business is open 6 * 5 = 30 hours a week on the weekdays. Then we find out the amount of time the business is open on a weekend day, using the same process as we did with the weekdays, finding Jean's business is open 10 - 6 = 4 hours each weekend day. Since there are two weekend days, this means they are open 4 * 2 = 8 hours on the weekends. We add these two totals together to find that 30 + 8 = 38 hours per week.. The answer is: 38.

Let's think step by step. Wendy’s dentist bill was 5 * $120 = $600. She got two fillings at a cost of 2 * $120 = $240. Thus, Wendy paid $600 - $240 - $70 = $290 for the tooth extraction.. The answer is: 290.
