Q: Sasha made 30 chocolate muffins for her school bake sale fundraiser. Melissa made 4 times as many muffins as Sasha, and Tiffany made half of Sasha and Melissa's total number of muffins. If one muffin sold for $4, how much money did Sasha, Melissa, and Tiffany contribute to the fundraiser?
A: Melissa made 30 x 4 = 120 muffins. Together, Melissa and Sasha made 30 + 120 = 150 muffins. Tiffany made 150 / 2 = 75 muffins. Altogether, they made 150 + 75 = 225 muffins. They contributed 225 x $4 = $900 to the fundraiser. The answer is 900.

[Question]Of the 90 people on William's bus, 3/5 were Dutch. Of the 1/2 of the Dutch who were also American, 1/3 got window seats. What's the number of Dutch Americans who sat at the windows?
[Answer]On the bus, the number of Dutch people was 3 / 5 of the total number, a total of 3 / 5 * 90 = 54 people. Out of the 54 people who were Dutch, 1 / 2 were Dutch Americans, a total of 1 / 2 * 54 = 27 people. If 1 / 3 of the passengers on the bus identifying as Dutch Americans sat at the windows, their number is 1 / 3 * 27 = 9. The answer is 9.

Q: Mr. and Mrs. Hugo went on a road trip. On the first day, they traveled 200 miles. On the second day, they traveled 3/4 as far. On the third day, they traveled 1/2 as many miles as the first two days combined. How many miles did they travel for 3 days?
A:
On the second day, Mr. and Mrs. Hugo traveled 200 x 3 / 4 = 150 miles. They traveled a total of 200 + 150 = 350 miles in the first two days. On the third day, they traveled 350 x 1 / 2 = 175 miles. So, Mr. and Mrs. Hugo traveled a total of 200 + 150 + 175 = 525 miles for 3 days. The answer is 525.
