Step-by-step reasoning process: First find how many degrees below 32 the temperature is: 32 degrees - 8 degrees = 24 degrees. Then divide that amount by the number of degrees per 5% increase in skid risk to find how many 5% increases there are: 24 degrees / 3 degrees / 5% increase = 8 5% increases. Multiply the number of increases by 5% to find the total increase in skid risk: 8 * 5% = 40%. Now find the chance that Annie has a serious accident if she goes into a skid by subtracting the chance she regains control from 100%: 100% - 40% = 60%. Finally, multiply the chance of going into a skid by the chance of having a serious accident after a skid to find the total risk of a serious accident: 60% * 40% = 24%.
[Q & A] The question is Annie is trying to figure out whether it's safe to drive her truck. For every 3 degrees the temperature drops below 32 degrees, Annie's chances of skidding on ice increase 5%. If she goes into a skid, she has a 40% of regaining control. Otherwise, she'll have a serious accident. If the temperature is 8 degrees, what is the percentage chance of Annie getting into a serious accident if she drives?
The answer is 24

Step-by-step reasoning process: There are 22 pieces of pizza because 14 plus 8 equals 22. They have eaten 18 pieces of pizza because 9 plus 9 equals 18. There are 4 pieces of pizza left because 22 minus 18 equals 4. There are 2 pieces per person because 4 divided by 2 equals 2.
[Q & A] The question is Phil and Andre decide to order some pizza. They get a small cheese and a large pepperoni. The small pizza has 8 slices, The large has 14 slices. They have both eaten 9 slices already. How many pieces are left per person?
The answer is 2

Step-by-step reasoning process: He cuts his grass 4 - 2 = 2 inches. So he gets it cut every 2 / .5 = 4 months. That means he gets it cut 12 / 4 = 3 times a year. So he pays 100 * 3 = $300 per year.
[Q & A] The question is John cuts his grass to 2 inches. It grows .5 inches per month. When it gets to 4 inches he cuts it back down to 2 inches. It cost $100 to get his grass cut. How much does he pay per year?
The answer is 300

Step-by-step reasoning process: The second cat meowed twice as frequently as the three meows per minute from the first cat, for a total of 2 * 3 = 6 meows per minute. The third cat meowed at one - third the frequency of the second cat, for a total of 6 / 3 = 2 meows per minute. Thus, combined, the three cats meow 3 + 6 + 2 = 11 times per minute. In five minutes, the three cats meow 5 * 11 = 55 times.
[Q & A]
The question is Three cats sat on a fence, meowing at the moon. The first cat meowed 3 times per minute. The second cat meowed twice as frequently as the first cat. And the third cat meowed at one-third the frequency of the second cat. What is the combined total number of meows the three cats make in 5 minutes?
The answer is 55
