Question: Jordan has a new hit song on Spotify. 3 months are left in the year, and she currently has 60,000 listens. If the number of listens per month doubles, how many listens will the song have by the end of the year?
Answer: In the first month, the song will have 60,000 * 2 = 120,000 listens. In the second month, the song will have 120000 * 2 = 240,000 listens. In the third month, the song will have 240000 * 2 = 480,000 listens. By the end of the year Jordan's song will have a total of 60,000 + 120,000 + 240,000 + 480,000 = 900,000 listens. The answer is 900000.
[Question]Bob has to hire someone to fix his garden. A storm destroyed all 20 of his rose bushes. He decides to replant all the rose bushes. Each rose bush costs $150. He also needs to pay a gardener $30 an hour, 5 hours each day for 4 days. The final expense is 100 cubic feet of soil sold for $5 per cubic foot. How much did the entire gardening project cost?
[Answer]The roses cost 150 * 20 = $3000. The gardener works 4 * 5 = 20 hours. So the gardener charges 30 * 20 = $600. The soil added another 5 * 100 = $500. So in total the cost was 3000 + 600 + 500 = $4100. The answer is 4100.
Q: Alma is taking a walk and comes across four goats standing behind a fence. Alma has a bag of baby carrots she brought to have for a snack and decides to feed the goats with them. Alma wants to make sure all the goats get the same amount of carrots, so she starts counting them out. She has 47 baby carrots. If she wants to give the exact same amount of carrots to each goat and wants to feed them all the carrots she can, how many will she have left over?
A: Alma has 47 baby carrots to feed 3 goats, 47 / 4 = 11.75 baby carrots. If she takes away the remaining .75, each goat gets an even 11 carrots each. If Alma feeds 11 carrots to each of 4 goats, that's a total of 11 * 4 = 44 carrots Alma feeds the goats. She started with 47 baby carrots - 44 she feeds the goats = 3 baby carrots left over. The answer is 3.
Question: Half of all the people in Nantucket will attend a planned meeting for a bowl game. There are 300 people in Nantucket, and the number of males going to the meeting is twice the number of females. How many females are going to the meeting?
Answer: If half of the people in Nantucket are going to the planned meeting, then there are 1 / 2 * 300 = 150 people going to the meeting. If the number of males going to the meeting is twice the number of females, we'll assume the number of females is x and the number of males is 2x. We know that x + 2x = 150. Adding like terms produces 3x = 150. After dividing both sides by 3, we have x = 150 / 3 = 50. The number of females attending the meeting is x = 50. The answer is 50.
[Question]Andy works in the pro shop at a tennis resort, where he earns $9 an hour. In addition to this, he gets paid $15 for each racquet he restrings, $10 for changing out the grommets on a racquet, and $1 for painting a stencil on the racquet strings. How much does he earn (before taxes) during an 8-hour shift if he strings 7 racquets, changes 2 sets of grommets, and paints 5 stencils?
[Answer]Andy works 8 hours, so he earns a wage of 8 hours * $9 per hour = $72 just for working there. During that time, he restrings 7 racquets, so he earns 7 racquets * $15 per racquet = $105 from stringing. He also changed the grommets in 2 of those racquets, so he earned 2 grommet jobs * $10 per grommet job = $20 from changing grommets. And he stenciled 5 racquets, so he earned 5 stencil jobs * $1 per stencil job = $5 for stenciling. In total, Andy earned $72 + $105 + $20 + 5 = $202 for the day. The answer is 202.

He swam 2 * 2 = 4 miles. He ran for 2 / 2 = 1 hour. His running speed was 2 * 4 = 8 mph. So he ran 8 * 1 = 8 miles. So his total distance was 8 + 4 = 12 miles. The answer is 12.
