Reasoning and answer: Since the father dug a hole with a rate of 4 feet per hour, if the father took 400 hours digging the hole, he dug a hole 4 * 400 = 1600 feet deep. Twice the depth of the hole that Michael's father dug is 2 * 1600 = 3200 feet. Michael wants to dig a hole 400 feet less than twice the depth of the hole that his father dug, meaning he wants to dig a hole 3200 - 400 = 2800 feet deep. To dig a hole that is 400 feet less than twice as deep as his father's hole working at a rate of 4 feet per hour, Michael will have to work for 2800 / 4 = 700 hours.
The answer: 700

Question: Michael wants to dig a hole 400 feet less deep than twice the depth of the hole that his father dug. The father dug a hole at a rate of 4 feet per hour. If the father took 400 hours to dig his hole, how many hours will it take for Michael to dig a hole that is 400 feet less than twice as deep as his father's hole working at the same rate?


If Emilio presents 11 gifts and Jorge 6 gifts, together they have presented 11 + 6 = 17 gifts. If Pedro also gives Rosalinda 4 gifts, Rosalinda's total number is 17 + 4 = 21 gifts.

Reasoning and answer: If in March the company produced 3000 masks, in April, after doubling the total mask production, the company produced 3000 * 2 = 6000 masks. In May, the company doubled its total mask production to 2 * 6000 = 12000. After doubling the production for June, the company was able to produce 2 * 12000 = 24000. By July, the company was producing a total of 2 * 24000 = 48000 masks.
The answer: 48000
What was the question?
Question: The total mask production was doubled every month by a company after the outbreak of Coronavirus due to increased demand. If the company produced 3000 masks in March, calculate the total mask production of July.


The movie theater admission costs $8 - $3 = $5 before 6 P.M. Kath will pay for herself, her siblings, and her friends, so that is a total of 1 + 2 + 3 = 6 people. So, Kate will pay $5 x 6 = $30 for all their admission.
The answer: 30
Reverse engineering the question: In a movie theater, the admission costs $8 but the price is $3 less if you watch the movie before 6 P.M. Kath takes her 2 siblings and 3 of her friends to a movie which starts at 4 P.M. How much will Kath pay for all of their admission?


Reasoning and answer: Each airplane has 20 x 7 = 140 seats. So, the 5 airplanes can accommodate a total of 140 x 5 = 700 passengers. Therefore, the airline company can accommodate 700 x 2 = 1400 passengers each day.
The answer: 1400
What was the question?
Question: An airline company owns 5 airplanes. Every airplane they own has 20 rows with 7 seats in each row. Each airplane makes 2 flights a day. How many passengers can the airline company accommodate each day?
