Q: Enid and Aaron are knitting clothes for their store. Aaron makes 10 scarves and 5 sweaters, and Enid makes 8 sweaters. If a scarf uses 3 balls of wool and a sweater uses 4 balls of wool, how many balls of wool did Enid and Aaron use in total?
A: Aaron used 10 scarves * 3 balls of wool = 30 balls of wool to make his scarves. He also used 5 sweaters * 4 balls of wool = 20 balls of wool to make his sweaters. Enid used 8 sweaters * 4 balls of wool = 32 balls of wool to make her sweaters. So in total, Aaron used 30 + 20 + 32 = 82 balls of wool. The answer is 82.
Question: Yvonne and Janna were writing their 1000-word pair research paper. Yvonne was able to write 400 words while Janna wrote 150 more words than Yvonne. When they edited their paper, they removed 20 words and added twice as many words as they removed. How many more words should they add to reach the research paper requirement?
Answer: Janna wrote 400 + 150 = 550 words. Together, they wrote 400 + 550 = 950 words. They have 950 - 20 = 930 words left after omitting 20 words. Then 20 x 2 = 40 words were added during the editing. Overall, they have 930 + 40 = 970 words. Thus, they should add 1000 - 970 = 30 more words. The answer is 30.

Q: A large gathering occurred at the town hall with 200 people participating. 100 people decided to have a snack, and then 20 new outsiders joined in to have a snack. Half of these snack eaters got full and left. 10 new outsiders came to have snacks, too. 30 more snack eaters got their fill and left. Then half of the remaining snack eaters left later on. How many snack eaters are left?
A: At the meeting, 200 - 100 = 100 people decided to have a snack. 20 new people came in to snack and the area had 100 + 20 = 120 of them eating. 120 / 2 = 60 people got full and left. 10 more new people came to join in the snacking so 60 + 10 = 70 people were eating. After 30 people left, 70 - 30 = 40 people who were eating remained. In the end, only 40 / 2 = 20 kept eating. The answer is 20.

Ziggy gets 30 / 2 = 15 electropop song requests every night. There are 15 / 3 = 5 dance song requests every night. There are 5 - 3 = 2 oldies requests every night. Ziggy plays DJ’s choice 2 / 2 = 1 time every night. Thus, Ziggy gets 30 - 15 - 5 - 5 - 2 - 1 = 2 rap songs requested every night. The answer is 2.
