Reasoning & answer: CoT: From Monday to Thursday, the cobbler can mend 3 x 8 = 24 pairs of shoes a day. From Monday to Thursday, he can mend 24 x 4 = 96 pairs of shoes. On Friday, he works for 11 - 8 = 3 hours. On Friday, he can mend 3 x 3 = 9 pairs of shoes. In a week, he can mend 96 + 9 = 105 pairs of shoes.
The answer: 105

Reasoning & answer: CoT: There are 3 families of 4 meaning there are 3 * 4 = 12 people in the vacation rental. They all use 1 oversized beach towel a day so they use 1 * 12 = 12 towels a day. They use 12 towels a day for 7 days so in one week they use 12 * 7 = 84 beach towels. The washing machine can only hold 14 towels and they have 84 towels to wash which means there are 84 / 14 = 6 loads of laundry.
The answer: 6
