Q: Darren bought 4 boxes of crackers. Each box contained 24 crackers. If Calvin bought one box less than twice as many boxes of crackers as Darren, how many crackers did they buy altogether?
A: 264
Step-by-step reasoning process: If Darren bought 4 boxes of crackers, each containing 24 crackers, the total number of crackers that Darren bought is 24 * 4 = 96. Twice as many boxes of crackers as Darren bought is 2 * 4 = 8. If Calvin bought one box less than twice as many boxes of crackers as Darren, then Calvin bought 8 - 1 = 7 boxes of crackers. The total number of crackers that Calvin bought is 7 * 24 = 168. Together, Darren and Clavin bought 168 + 96 = 264 crackers.


Q: Carlos and Diego are racing around the block. Carlos runs around the entire block in 3 minutes. Diego runs around half the block in 2.5 minutes and then is tripped by a dog and can't finish. Assuming he kept up the same speed the entire race, what would've been the average time in seconds for the racers?
A: 240
Step-by-step reasoning process: If he finished the race, it would've taken 5 minutes because 2.5 x 2 = 5. Their total time would've been 8 minutes because 3 + 5 = 8. The average would've been 4 minutes because 8 / 2 = 4. The average time in seconds would've been 240 because 4 x 60 = 240.
