Reasoning and answer: The price of potatoes is 6 * 2 = $12. The price of tomatoes is 9 * 3 = $27. The price of cucumbers is 5 * 4 = $20. The price of bananas is 3 * 5 = $15. The total price Peter spent is 12 + 27 + 20 + 15 = $74. The amount left with Peter is $500 - $74 = $426.
The answer: 426

8 hours * 3 = 24 hours. 5.5 * 2 = 11 hours. 24 + 11 = 35 hours. 35 / 7 = 5 hours. Lawrence would work 5 hours each of the 7 days in a week.
The answer: 5
Reverse engineering the question: Lawrence worked 8 hours each day on Monday, Tuesday and Friday. He worked 5.5 hours on both Wednesday and Thursday. How many hours would Lawrence work each day if he worked the same number of hours each day?


Reasoning and answer: He has $2 in $1 bills because 2 times 1 equals 2. He has $5 in $5 bills because 1 times 5 equals 5. He has $3.25 in quarters because 13 times .25 equals 3.25. He has $2 in dimes because 20 times .1 equals 2. He has $.40 in nickels because 8 times .05 equals .4. He has $.35 in pennies because 35 times .01 equals .35. He has $13 because 2 plus 5 plus 3.25 plus 2 plus .4 plus .35 equals 13.
The answer: 13

In 3 years, the sum of their present ages will be added by 3 (from Allen) + 3 (from her mother) = 6. So, the sum of their present ages is 41 - 6 = 35. Let x be the present age of Allen's mother and x - 25 be the present age of Allen. So the equation using the sum of their present ages is x + x - 25 = 35. By combining like terms, the equation becomes 2x = 60. Hence, Allen's mother is x = 60 / 2 = 30 years old now.
The answer: 30
Reverse engineering the question: Allen is 25 years younger than his mother. In 3 years, the sum of their ages will be 41. What is the present age of Allen's mother?


Reasoning and answer: If the grandmother has 50 dolls, Rene's sister, who has 2 more dolls than their grandmother, has 50 + 2 = 52 dolls. Together, Rene's sister and the grandmother have 52 + 50 = 102 dolls. Since Rene has three times as many dolls as her sister, she has 52 * 3 = 156 dolls. Altogether, they have 156 + 102 = 258 dolls.
The answer: 258
