Q: Going into the final game, Duke is so close to breaking the school's record for most points scored in a basketball season. He only needs 17 more points to tie the record. By the end of the game, Duke breaks the record by 5 points. The old record was 257 points. In the final game Duke made 5 free throws (worth one point), and 4 regular baskets (worth two points), and some three-pointers. Normally, he scores 2 three-pointers a game. How many more three-pointers did he score in the final game compared to his normal amount?
A: Duke scored 22 points in the final game because 17 + 5 = 22. He scored 5 points of free - throws, because 5 x 1 = 5. He scored 8 points of regular baskets because 4 x 2 = 8. He made 9 points of three - pointers because 22 - 5 - 8 = 9. He scored 3 three - pointers in the final game because 9 / 3 = 3. Duke scored 1 more than normal because 3 - 2 = 1. The answer is 1.
Question: Mr. Caiden wants to do repairs to his house and requires 300 feet of metal roofing to do this. If each foot of roofing costs $8, and the supplier of the metal roofing brings in 250 feet of metal roofing for free, how much money is Mr. Caiden required to pay for the remaining metal roofing?
Answer: The supplier brought 300 ft - 250 ft = 50 fewer feet of metal roofing. Therefore the total amount of money Mr. Caiden has to pay for the remaining metal roofings is 50 feet * $8 / foot = $400. The answer is 400.
[Question]Adam owns a wood carving shop, if a block of basswood can create 3 figurines and a block of butternut wood can create 4 figurines, and a block of Aspen wood can make twice the amount of figurines compared to basswood, how many figurines can he make if he owns 15 blocks of basswood, 20 blocks of butternut wood, and 20 blocks of Aspen wood?
[Answer]Adam can make 15 x 3 = 45 figurines out of the blocks of basswood. He can also make 3 x 2 = 6 figurines out of a block of Aspen wood. So, he can make 20 x 6 = 120 figurines out of all the blocks of Aspen wood. He can also make 20 x 4 = 80 figurines out of all the blocks of butternut wood. Therefore, Adam can make a total of 120 + 80 + 45 = 245 figurines using all the blocks of wood. The answer is 245.
Q: Herbert is 10 years younger than Kris. If Kris is 24 years old now, how old will Herbert be next year?

Question: Mary brought 50 stickers to class. She gave 4 stickers to each of her 5 friends. She gave everyone else in class two stickers each. If she has 8 stickers left over, how many students are in the class, including Mary?
Answer: She gave out 50 - 8 = 42 stickers in total. She gave 4 * 5 = 20 stickers to her friends. She gave out 42 - 20 = 22 stickers to the rest of the class. This means there are 22 / 2 = 11 other students in the class. There are a total of 1 + 5 + 11 = 17 students in the class. The answer is 17.
Q: Ivory and Brayan are doing school projects with a tight deadline and have to stay up late to complete everything. They prepare coffee to help them stay focused.

If Brayan drinks 4 cups of coffee in an hour, twice what Ivory drinks, then Ivory drinks 4 / 2 = 2 cups of coffee in an hour. Together, they drink 4 + 2 = 6 cups of coffee in an hour. After 5 hours, they will drink 5 * 6 = 30 cups of coffee together. The answer is 30.
