Q: Coral reads 30 pages of a book on night 1, and 2 less than twice that on night 2. Night 3 Coral reads 3 more pages than the sum of the first two nights. How many total pages did Coral read in the 3 nights?
A: Night 1:30 pages. Night 2:2(30) - 2 = 58 pages. Night 3:3 + (30 + 58) = 91 pages. Total:30 + 58 + 91 = 179 pages. The answer is 179.

Q: Isabella is twice as old as Antonio. In 18 months, she will be 10 years old. How many months old is Antonio?
A: First, we determine that Isabella will be 10 * 12 = 120 months old at age 10, to find a number to compare her age to Antonio's with. Then we subtract the 18 months from the total of 120 months to find 120 - 18 = 102 months, which is the age Isabella is currently. Since at 102 months old Isabella is twice as old as Antonio, we take 102 / 2 = 51 months as Antonio's age. The answer is 51.
