Jake delivers 234 newspapers a week. Miranda delivers twice as many newspapers a week. How many more newspapers does Miranda deliver than Jake in a month? | Jake delivers 234 x 4 = <<234*4=936>>936 newspapers in a month.
Miranda delivers 234 x 2 = <<234*2=468>>468 newspapers in a week.

Monica and Michelle are combining their money to throw a party. Monica brings $15. Michelle brings $12. The cake costs 15 dollars, and soda is $3 a bottle. Each bottle of soda has 12 servings and they buy as many bottles of soda as they can afford. If there are 8 total guests, how many servings of soda does each get? | They have $27 for the party because 15 + 12 = <<15+12=27>>27
They have $12 for soda because 27 - 15 = <<27-15=12>>12
They can buy 4 bottles of soda because 12 / 3 = <<12/3=4>>4
They have 48 servings of soda because 4 x 12 = <<4*12=48>>48
Each guest gets 6 servings because 48 / 8 = <<48/8=6>>6

Rory collects rainwater. He has 100 L of rainwater in his tank. During a heavy rainstorm, water flows into the tank at a rate of 2 L/min for 90 minutes. How much water is in the tank at the end of the heavy rain? | During the heavy rain, the tank collects 2 * 90 = <<2*90=180>>180 L of water
The tank has a total of 100 + 180 = <<100+180=280>>280 L of water
