Question: A farmer harvested 60 apples. He put them into bags with 8 apples in each bag. After giving away 3 bags, how many apples does the farmer have left? Think step by step then provide the numerical answer at the end after the delimiter '####', like '#### 24'.
Let's break down the problem step by step: 1. The farmer harvested 60 apples. 2. He puts them into bags with 8 apples in each bag. - Number of full bags he can make: 60 ÷ 8 = 7 full bags (because 8 × 7 = 56 apples). - Apples used in bags: 7 × 8 = 56 apples. - Apples left out of bags: 60 - 56 = 4 apples. 3. The farmer gives away 3 bags. - Each bag has 8 apples, so 3 × 8 = 24 apples are given away. 4. The apples the farmer has left: - Apples remaining in bags: 7 - 3 = 4 bags left. - Apples in remaining bags: 4 × 8 = 32 apples. - Plus the 4 apples that were not bagged: 32 + 4 = 36 apples. So, after giving away 3 bags, the farmer has 36 apples left. #### 36

Question: A baker made 24 cupcakes and put them equally into 4 boxes. He sold 2 boxes and then baked 12 more cupcakes, putting them into 2 boxes equally. How many cupcakes does he have left? Think step by step then provide the numerical answer at the end after the delimiter '####', like '#### 24'.
Let's break down the problem step by step: 1. The baker made 24 cupcakes and put them equally into 4 boxes. - 24 cupcakes ÷ 4 boxes = 6 cupcakes per box. - So, there are 4 boxes, each with 6 cupcakes. 2. He sold 2 boxes. - Each box contains 6 cupcakes, so 2 boxes contain 2 × 6 = 12 cupcakes. - After selling, 24 - 12 = 12 cupcakes are left (in the remaining 2 boxes). 3. He then baked 12 more cupcakes and put them equally into 2 boxes. - 12 cupcakes ÷ 2 boxes = 6 cupcakes per box. - So, 2 new boxes, each with 6 cupcakes. 4. Total cupcakes left: - 12 cupcakes (from earlier) + 12 cupcakes (newly baked) = 24 cupcakes. #### 24

Question: A class has 32 students. The teacher divides them into 4 equal groups for a project. Later, 8 more students join the class. If the teacher makes new groups of 6 students each, how many groups are there now? Think step by step then provide the numerical answer at the end after the delimiter '####', like '#### 24'.
Let's solve this step by step: 1. The class originally has 32 students. 2. 8 more students join the class. - Total students now = 32 + 8 = 40 3. The teacher now wants to make groups of 6 students each. 4. To find how many groups, divide the total number of students by the group size: - Number of groups = 40 ÷ 6 = 6 with a remainder of 4. This means there will be 6 full groups of 6 students, and 1 group with the remaining 4 students. If we count all groups (including the one with fewer than 6 students), there are 7 groups. #### 7
