Below is an instruction that describes a task. Write a response that appropriately completes the request in English. Please answer in English. ### Instruction: If 100 pieces, each 15 centimeters long, are cut from a 51-meter long ribbon, how much ribbon remains ? ### Response:
The total length cut from the 51-meter ribbon is 100 x 15 centimeters = <<100*15=1500>>1500 centimeters. Since 1 meter is equal to 100 centimeters, then 1500 centimeters is equal to 1500/100 = <<1500/100=15>>15 meters. Thus, 51 - 15 = <<51-15=36>>36 meters of ribbon remains. #### 36

Please answer in English. ### Instruction: Working together, four pugs can clean their house in 45 minutes. In how many minutes will 15 pugs working together be able to clean their house? ### Response:
If four pugs can clean their house in 45 minutes, one pug will take 4*45 = 180 minutes. Since one pug working alone takes 180 minutes to clean the house, fifteen pugs working together will be able to clean their house in 180/15 = <<180/15=12>>12 minutes #### 12

Please answer in English. ### Instruction: Rick held a fundraiser and is figuring out who still owes money. He marked on a sheet how much everyone has promised to contribute, but he forgot to note how m...
In total, Rick is still owed 400 - 285 = $<<400-285=115>>115. Derek owes half as much as Amy, so he owes $30 / 2 = $<<30/2=15>>15. This means that Sally and Carl owe a combined total of $115 - $15 – $30 = $<<115-15-30=70>>70. As they owe equal amounts, they therefore owe $70 / 2 = $<<70/2=35>>35 each. #### 35

If the number of deaf students is ...
Call the number of blind students b. There are 180 deaf students, which is three times the number of blind students, so 3b = 180 Multiplying both sides of the equation by 1/3 gives b = (1/3)*180 = <<(1/3)*180=60>>60 The total number of students is 180 + 60 = <<180+60=240>>240 #### 240

If he wan...
Since Carl wants an 85 as an average and he takes four tests, he needs to have 85 * 4 = <<85*4=340>>340 total points. He has 245 points already because 80 + 75 + 90 equals <<80+75+90=245>>245. He needs 95 points on his last test because 340 - 245 equals <<340-245=95>>95. #### 95

Ten times the time Kyle takes to travel to work and back is the same as the cost of buying a pack of snacks, meaning a pack is sold at 10*4 = $<<10*4=40>>40 To buy 50 packs of snacks, Ryan will have to pay $40*50 = $<<40*5...
