Problem: A penguin biologist counted 35 penguins on a small ice floe. In another part of the Antarctic, she counted a different group of penguins and found there were approximately 598 divided evenly among 26 ice floes. After returning to the first place, she found that the penguin population had increased by 49. Wishing to conduct another survey, she decided to take 33 more penguins into account. However, when she counted them again, she realized she had overestimated and had to subtract 10 from her calculations. Her final step was to add in the penguins she’d left at her base camp, which were 20 adults and 14 chicks. How many penguins did she count in total?

Gemini-1.5 Flash:

Reasoning: The biologist counted 598 / 26 = <<598 / 26 = 23>> 23 penguins on each of the 26 ice floes.
At the first ice floe, there were 35 + 49 = <<35 + 49 = 84>> 84 penguins.
She added 33 more penguins, making the total 84 + 33 = <<84 + 33 = 117>> 117 penguins.
After removing 10, she was left with 117 - 10 = <<117 - 10 = 107>> 107 penguins.
Finally, she added the 20 adult penguins and 14 chicks from her base camp, making the total 107 + 20 + 14 = <<107 + 20 + 14 = 141>> 141 penguins.

Problem: In a local park, a jungle gym has a total of 27 steps. If the top 19 steps are blue and rest along with another 19 steps are red, we get a certain number of colored steps. On another jungle gym, there are 34 green steps. What is the total number of colored steps on the two jungle gyms?

Gemini-1.5 Flash:

Reasoning: First, we need to figure out how many red steps there are on the first jungle gym. We know there are 27 total steps and 19 blue steps, so there are 27 - 19 = 8 red steps. Then we need to add the red steps to the blue steps to find the total number of colored steps on the first jungle gym: 8 + 19 = 27 colored steps. Finally, we add the number of colored steps on the first jungle gym to the number of green steps on the second jungle gym: 27 + 34 = 61 colored steps.

Problem: A young boy with a creative mind decided to build a kite. He started with 37 paper straws but decided that 4 were unnecessary and removed them. Later, he realized his kite was still too bulky and removed another 23 straws. He multiplied the remaining number of straws by 45, subtracted 49 from that total, and then took out 7 more straws. How many straws did the boy have left?

Gemini-1.5 Flash:

Here's how we can solve this problem step-by-step:

1. **Start with the initial number:** The boy began with 37 straws.
2. **Remove the first set:** He removed 4 straws, leaving him with 37 - 4 = 33 straws.
3. **Remove the second set:** He then removed another 23 straws, leaving him with 33 - 23 = 10 straws.
4. **Multiply by 45:** He multiplied the remaining straws by 45, giving him 10 * 45 = 450 straws.
5. **Subtract 49:** He then subtracted 49 from this total, leaving him with 450 - 49 = 401 straws.
6. **Remove the final set:** Finally, he removed 7 more straws, leaving him with 401 - 7 = 394 straws.

Problem: At the zoo, there were 2 trips being hosted. Each trip was allowed to see 2 animals. However, each animal had 3 baby animals with them, making the number of animals seen per trip multiplied by 3. If each baby animal could be photographed 21 times, how many photos could be taken in total? Also, if 34 photos were spoiled and unusable out of the entire batch, but guests were given the opportunity to take an additional 30 photos later, how many usable photos would there be in total?

Gemini-1.5 Flash:

Reasoning: Each trip sees 2 animals * 3 baby animals per animal = 6 baby animals.
There were 2 trips * 6 baby animals per trip = 12 baby animals seen.
A total of 12 baby animals * 21 photos per baby animal = 252 photos were taken.
Out of the 252 photos, 252 photos - 34 spoiled photos = 218 photos were usable.
The guests took an additional 30 photos, bringing the usable photos to 218 photos + 30 photos = 248 usable photos.

Problem: In a literacy event, a group of learners were asked to write a word from letters. In the first round, they could form a word with 47 letters, but due to a mistake, they had to remove 30 letters. Then, they figured out they could still add 10 more letters to this word. In the next round, they removed 3 of these letters from the updated word. How many letters were there in the word after this last deletion?

Gemini-1.5 Flash:

Reasoning: After removing 30 letters, the word had 47 - 30 = 17 letters. 
Then, they added 10 letters, making the word have 17 + 10 = 27 letters. 
Finally, they removed 3 letters, leaving the word with 27 - 3 = 24 letters.

Problem: A turtle named Tommy moves at 74/37 miles per hour. If Tommy maintains his current speed for a while then slows down by 3 mph, then speeds up to his initial speed again, what would be his average speed?

Gemini-1.5 Flash:

Here's how we can solve this problem:

* **Simplify Tommy's initial speed:**  74/37 simplifies to 2 miles per hour.
* **Tommy's slower speed:**  His slower speed is 2 mph - 3 mph = -1 mph. This means he's actually moving backward at 1 mph.
* **Average speed calculation:** To calculate the average speed, we need to consider the time spent at each speed. Since we don't know the time, we'll assume he spends an equal amount of time at each speed. This makes the calculation easier.
* **Average speed formula:**  Average speed = (Total distance) / (Total time)
* **Simplified approach:** Since we're assuming equal time at each speed, we can simply average the three speeds: (2 mph + (-1 mph) + 2 mph) / 3 = 1 mph

Problem: A towel company initially produced 30 beach towels and 6 hand towels. They then gave away 7 towels for charity, which leaves a certain amount of towels. They then decided to produce 14 more towels to add to their current stock. On the other hand, they made a special batch of 13 towels for every towel left after their charity activity and deducted 19 towels from this special batch, calling it their premium collection. They then noted 20 towels were damaged and removed it from this premium collection. After this, they deducted 3 more towels from the remaining premium collection and combined it with the total they had after their second batch of production. How many towels does the company have now?

Gemini-1.5 Flash:

Here's how to break down the problem step-by-step:

1. **Initial Production:** The company started with 30 beach towels + 6 hand towels = 36 towels.

2. **Charity:** After giving away 7 towels, they have 36 - 7 = 29 towels left.

3. **Second Batch:** After producing 14 more towels, they have 29 + 14 = 43 towels.

4. **Special Batch:** They made 13 towels for each of the 29 towels left after charity, so they made 13 * 29 = 377 towels.

5. **Premium Collection:** They deducted 19 towels from the special batch, leaving 377 - 19 = 358 towels.

6. **Damaged Towels:** After removing damaged towels, they have 358 - 20 = 338 towels in the premium collection.

7. **Final Deduction:** After deducting 3 more towels, the premium collection has 338 - 3 = 335 towels.

8. **Total:**  The company now has 43 towels (from their initial production and second batch) + 335 towels (from the premium collection) = 378 towels.

Problem: A park contains 43 Velociraptors. Then, the park added another set of dinosaurs which numbered 972, but as it so happens, each of these sections contained 27 dinosaurs. This meant the actual number of new dinosaur types added was less. After calculating the new dinosaur types, they found out that the number of Velociraptors was more. They found the difference and multiplied this difference by 7, as each of the Velociraptors laid 7 new eggs that week. How many total eggs were laid by the Velociraptors that week?

Gemini-1.5 Flash:

Reasoning: The park added 972/27 = <<972/27=36>> 36 new dinosaur types.
The difference between the number of Velociraptors and new dinosaur types is 43-36 = <<43-36=7>> 7.
Therefore, the Velociraptors laid 7*7 = <<7*7=49>> 49 eggs that week.

Problem: A toothbrush factory produces 37 toothbrushes per minute at the start of its morning shift. A little later, it increases its production to rate to 308 toothbrushes every 7 minutes. If this increased rate of production continued for 16 minutes, how many toothbrushes were produced in total?

Gemini-1.5 Flash:

Reasoning: First, we find the number of toothbrushes produced per minute at the higher rate: 308 toothbrushes / 7 minutes = 44 toothbrushes per minute.
Then, we multiply this rate by the number of minutes the factory ran at this rate: 44 toothbrushes/minute * 16 minutes = 704 toothbrushes.
To find the total, we add the number of toothbrushes produced at the original rate to the number produced at the higher rate.  We need to calculate the number of toothbrushes produced in the first 7 minutes at the higher rate (as the problem starts at the higher rate after 7 minutes).  
In those first 7 minutes at the higher rate, 44 toothbrushes/minute * 7 minutes = 308 toothbrushes were produced.  This leaves 9 minutes at the lower production rate (16 minutes total - 7 minutes at the higher rate).
The total number of toothbrushes produced in those 9 minutes at the lower rate: 37 toothbrushes/minute * 9 minutes = 333 toothbrushes.
The total number of toothbrushes produced over the entire 16 minute period is: 333 toothbrushes + 704 toothbrushes = 1037 toothbrushes.

Problem: The height of a window frame is calculated as the sum of 925 divided by 37 and 26 inches. The width of the window is 11 inches greater than the height. The circumference of the window is calculated as the sum of twice the width and the height. Finally the size of the glass for the window is calculated by subtracting 32 from the circumference. Find the size of the glass required for the window?

Gemini-1.5 Flash:

Here's how to break down the problem step-by-step:

1. **Calculate the height of the window frame:**
   - 925 divided by 37 is 925 / 37 = 25 inches
   - The height of the frame is 25 inches + 26 inches = 51 inches

2. **Calculate the width of the window:**
   - The width is 11 inches greater than the height, so it's 51 inches + 11 inches = 62 inches

3. **Calculate the circumference of the window:**
   - The circumference is twice the width plus the height: (2 * 62 inches) + 51 inches = 175 inches

4. **Calculate the size of the glass:**
   - Subtract 32 inches from the circumference: 175 inches - 32 inches = 143 inches

Problem: A pirate finds treasure with 135 gold coins. He divides these amongst his crew of 9. On another island, they find 323 emeralds which he divides amongst his crew of 19. He then multiplies these two shares to find out the total share per crew member. However, due to a miscount, he later realizes he has overcounted the share by 14. What is the corrected total share per crew member?

Gemini-1.5 Flash:

Here's how to solve this problem step-by-step:

1. **Gold coins per crew member:** The pirate divides 135 gold coins amongst 9 crew members, giving each crew member 135 / 9 = 15 gold coins.

2. **Emeralds per crew member:** On the other island, he divides 323 emeralds amongst 19 crew members, giving each crew member 323 / 19 = 17 emeralds.

3. **Initial total share:** He multiplies the gold and emerald shares to get a total share of 15 * 17 = 255.

4. **Corrected total share:** He overcounted the share by 14, so the corrected total share per crew member is 255 - 14 = 241.

Problem: A chocolatier has decided to make small chocolate bars that weigh 176 grams each. To get the right size, he divides each bar into 8 pieces, which means each piece weighs a certain number of grams. He then decides to make a new batch of chocolate using a special recipe. This recipe calls for a total of 38 grams of cocoa, but subtraction the weight of one piece from the 176g bars, plus an additional 26 grams of sugar. Simultaneously, the chocolatier decides to create another batch of chocolates that needs a total of 38 grams of cocoa and 18 grams of milk. What is the difference in the total weight of ingredients between the second and third batch of chocolates?

Gemini-1.5 Flash:

Here's how we can solve this problem step-by-step:

1. **Calculate the weight of one piece:** The chocolatier divides each 176-gram bar into 8 pieces, so each piece weighs 176 grams / 8 pieces = 22 grams.

2. **Calculate the total weight of the special recipe:** The special recipe uses 38 grams of cocoa minus the weight of one piece (22 grams) plus 26 grams of sugar, for a total of 38 - 22 + 26 = 42 grams.

3. **Calculate the total weight of the third batch:** The third batch uses 38 grams of cocoa and 18 grams of milk for a total of 38 + 18 = 56 grams.

4. **Find the difference in weight:** The difference between the special recipe (42 grams) and the third batch (56 grams) is 56 - 42 = 14 grams.

Problem: A silversmith has 16 silver rings in stock. He decided to create more rings and ended up with 28 silver and 24 gold rings. Then he subtracted from them the number of his original stock of silver rings. He traded some rings and ended up with 21 rings less than what he had after the creation stage. After that, for a special order, he created 26 times the number of rings he had left. In addition, he had made 7 platinum and 47 bronze rings for another order. How many rings does the silversmith have in total now?

Gemini-1.5 Flash:

Here's how we can break down the problem step-by-step:

1. **Rings after creation:** The silversmith had 28 silver + 24 gold = 52 rings after creation.
2. **Rings after subtracting original stock:** After subtracting his original 16 silver rings, he had 52 - 16 = 36 rings.
3. **Rings after trading:** He traded some and had 36 - 21 = 15 rings left.
4. **Rings after special order:** He created 26 * 15 = 390 rings for the special order.
5. **Total rings:** He now has 390 + 15 + 7 platinum + 47 bronze = 459 rings.

Problem: You are mixing paints to create different shades. In one mixture, you have 41 drops of red paint. You then add 13 drops of white paint and the same amount of red paint as before. You take a sample of this mixture, which is 34 drops, and add that to a new mixture. Then take away the same amount of the 34 drop sample that you took originally. How many drops of paint are there in the new mixture?

Gemini-1.5 Flash:

Here's how we can break down the problem:

1. **Initial mixture:** You start with 41 drops of red paint and add 13 drops of white paint, giving you a total of 41 + 13 = 54 drops.
2. **Adding more red paint:** You then add another 41 drops of red paint, bringing the total to 54 + 41 = 95 drops.
3. **Adding a sample:** You take a 34 drop sample of the mixture and add it to a new mixture.
4. **Removing the sample:** You then remove the same amount (34 drops) from the new mixture.

Since you add the sample and then remove the same amount, the net change in the new mixture is zero. 

**Therefore, the number of drops of paint in the new mixture is the same as the amount you originally took out, which is 34 drops.**

Problem: A small toy car factory made 32 toy cars on Monday, but only 27 on Tuesday. They multiply the difference by 49 to determine their weekly goal. The staff number in the factory is 12, and every staff member makes 9 toy cars a day. They add 45 to the total number of toy cars prepared by staff members. On Friday, they prepare 31 additional toy cars and add this to the weekly goal and staff prepared cars. How many toy cars in total were made in this process?

Gemini-1.5 Flash:

Here's how to break down the problem step-by-step:

1. **Difference in production:**  The factory made 32 - 27 = 5 fewer toy cars on Tuesday.
2. **Weekly goal:** They multiply the difference by 49: 5 * 49 = 245.
3. **Staff production per day:** Each of the 12 staff members makes 9 toy cars a day, so they make a total of 12 * 9 = 108 toy cars per day.
4. **Total staff production for the week:** Assuming a 5-day workweek, the staff makes 108 * 5 = 540 toy cars.
5. **Adding to staff production:** They add 45 to the staff's total: 540 + 45 = 585.
6. **Friday's production:**  They add the 31 toy cars made on Friday: 585 + 31 = 616.
7. **Final total:** To get the total number of toy cars made, we add Friday's production to the weekly goal: 616 + 245 = 861.

Problem: In a puzzle game, each round you collect 150 points which are then divided by 10 to determine the number of gold coins you earn. After two rounds, you earned some gold coins. In the third round, you collected 28 emeralds and 14 sapphires but you had to sacrifice the same amount of gold coins as you earned in the first two rounds. How many emeralds and sapphires did you have left after the third round?

Gemini-1.5 Flash:

Here's how we can solve this:

**Round 1 and 2:**

* **Points per round:** 150 points
* **Gold coins per round:** 150 points / 10 = 15 gold coins
* **Total gold coins earned in two rounds:** 15 coins/round * 2 rounds = 30 gold coins

**Round 3:**

* **Gold coins sacrificed:** 30 gold coins
* **Emeralds and sapphires:** 28 emeralds + 14 sapphires = 42 total

**After Round 3:**

* **Emeralds and Sapphires left:** Since you sacrificed gold coins, you still have **42 emeralds and sapphires** left.

**Important Note:**  The problem doesn't specify that the emeralds and sapphires have any relationship to the gold coins. It's likely a trick to mislead you.

Problem: A company produces 36 marshmallow packs in an hour. To meet a sudden increase in demand, they decide to increase their production. They add an extra 350 marshmallows to their daily production, which is distributed evenly over 7 hours of their working day. Additionally, they add another 6 marshmallow packs to their hourly production. But, due to some limitations, they end up producing 43 less packs per hour than their goal. How many marshmallow packs per hour are they now producing?

Gemini-1.5 Flash:

Here's how to break down the problem step by step:

1. **Extra marshmallows per hour:** They add 350 marshmallows to their daily production, distributed over 7 hours, so they add 350/7 = 50 marshmallows per hour.

2. **Total extra production per hour:** This includes the extra marshmallows and the 6 additional packs: 50 marshmallows + (6 packs * marshmallows per pack) = 50 + 6*x, where x is the number of marshmallows per pack.

3. **Goal production per hour:** Their original production was 36 packs per hour, and they aim to add 6 more: 36 + 6 = 42 packs per hour.

4. **Actual production per hour:** They produce 43 less than their goal: 42 - 43 = -1 packs per hour. This means they are producing less than their original production.

5. **Combined production:** Their actual production is the original production plus the extra production: 36 + (50 + 6*x) -1 = 36 + 50 + 6*x -1 = 85 + 6*x

6. **Since they are producing less than their original production, this means their actual production is less than 36:** 85 + 6*x < 36

7. **Solving for x:** Subtract 85 from both sides: 6*x < -49
8. **Divide both sides by 6:** x < -8.17

9. **This result doesn't make sense** because we can't have a negative number of marshmallows per pack. This indicates there's an error in the problem statement, likely the number of less packs produced per hour. 

**Without a corrected number of less packs produced per hour, we can't determine the exact number of marshmallow packs they are now producing.** 

Expected answer: 49

Correct? No

Problem: A wizard casts a spell that produces 882 glimmering lights over a span of 21 days. That's an average of how many lights a day? In comparison, another wizard casts a spell that produces 460 glowing orbs in 20 days. What is the daily average here? Now, let's assume that the difference in their daily averages times the second wizard's daily average is a magical constant represented by 'n'. Can you find out what 'n' is?

Gemini-1.5 Flash:

Here's how we can solve this step-by-step:

**Step 1: Find the average lights per day for the first wizard.**

* Divide the total number of lights by the number of days: 882 lights / 21 days = 42 lights/day

**Step 2: Find the average orbs per day for the second wizard.**

* Divide the total number of orbs by the number of days: 460 orbs / 20 days = 23 orbs/day

**Step 3: Calculate the difference in daily averages.**

* Subtract the second wizard's daily average from the first wizard's daily average: 42 lights/day - 23 orbs/day = 19

**Step 4: Calculate the magical constant 'n'.**

* Multiply the difference in daily averages by the second wizard's daily average: 19 * 23 = 437

Problem: The distance between the Moon and the Earth changes throughout the month. On one particular day, the distance was 36 million kilometers but decreased by 19 million kilometers later in the month. Then it increased again by 11 million kilometers. If that distance, in millions of kilometers, times 19 minus 27 equals to a certain value, what is the value?

Gemini-1.5 Flash:

Reasoning: After the first decrease, the distance between the Moon and the Earth was 36 - 19 = 17 million kilometers.
Then, after the increase, the distance was 17 + 11 = 28 million kilometers.
Multiplying this distance by 19 gives us 28 * 19 = 532.
Finally, subtracting 27 from this value results in 532 - 27 = 505.

Problem: A toothpaste factory produces 26 tubes of toothpaste every hour. On Sundays, they work for 7 hours and produce additional 8 tubes of toothpaste. So, in one Sunday, they produce ((26 * 7) + 8) tubes. The following Monday, they continue their production by adding another 31 tubes to their Sunday's total. In parallel, in the packaging department, they have 50 empty boxes. They use 19 of them for another department, leaving them with (50 - 19) boxes. The total number of toothpaste tubes ready is calculated by adding the packaged boxes number with Monday's production. On Tuesday, they produced an additional 48 tubes of toothpaste. What is the total number of produced toothpaste tubes until Tuesday, inclusive?

Gemini-1.5 Flash:

Here's how we can break down the problem step-by-step:

* **Sunday's Production:** (26 * 7) + 8 = 182 + 8 = 190 tubes
* **Monday's Production:** 190 + 31 = 221 tubes
* **Available Boxes:** 50 - 19 = 31 boxes
* **Total Tubes Ready After Monday:** 31 boxes (since each box can hold one tube)
* **Tuesday's Production:** 48 tubes

**Total Produced Tubes Until Tuesday:** 221 (Monday) + 48 (Tuesday) = 269 tubes

Problem: A gardener planted 13 Sunflowers in his garden. The next day, he worked out that he needed to plant more, with the number being calculated as 37 times the number of petals on one sunflower, which is 5, minus 18. On the following day, he subtracted 10 flowers from that number, then added his initial sunflowers back, creating a new total. Meanwhile, he figured out that in a special part of his garden, ideal for 92 orchids he had, each spot can hold 23, so he calculated how many spots needed. By the end of the week, he summed up the total number of plants he worked on and the spots needed, then he doubled that total for no particular reason. How many did he end up with?

Gemini-1.5 Flash:

Here's how we can break down the problem step-by-step:

* **Step 1: Flowers planted the second day:** 
   - 37 times the number of petals (5) is 37 * 5 = 185
   - Minus 18 gives us 185 - 18 = 167 sunflowers
* **Step 2: Flowers after the third day:**
   - Subtracting 10 from the previous day's total gives 167 - 10 = 157 sunflowers
   - Adding the initial 13 sunflowers gives 157 + 13 = 170 sunflowers
* **Step 3: Orchid spots:**
   - 92 orchids divided by 23 spots per orchid gives 92 / 23 = 4 spots
* **Step 4: Total plants and spots:**
   - Summing the sunflowers and orchid spots gives 170 + 4 = 174
* **Step 5: Doubling the total:**
   - Doubling the total gives 174 * 2 = 348

Problem: A treasure chest contains 23 emeralds and 30 diamonds. Unfortunately, 39 of the stones are fake and had to be removed. The number of real stones left (y) is multiplied by itself and then 37 is subtracted to get a number (g) that represents the value of the chest. In another chest, there were 540 rubies which have been equally shared amongst 45 pirates, and then 3 are lost in the division. The remaining number (x) is subtracted from the value of the first chest (g) to get a new value. In the same chest as the rubies, there were also 23 pearls and 11 zirconias, but 9 pieces had to be discarded due to damage. The count (s) is subtracted from the new value to determine the value (m) of the remaining treasure. What is the value (m) of the remaining treasure?

Gemini-1.5 Flash:

Let's break down the problem step by step:

1. **Real Stones in the First Chest:**
   - There are 23 emeralds + 30 diamonds = 53 stones in total.
   - Since 39 are fake, there are 53 - 39 = 14 real stones left (y).

2. **Value of the First Chest (g):**
   - The value is calculated as (y * y) - 37.
   - Substituting y = 14, we get (14 * 14) - 37 = 196 - 37 = 159.

3. **Rubies Remaining (x):**
   - 540 rubies divided equally among 45 pirates gives 540 / 45 = 12 rubies per pirate.
   - After losing 3 rubies, there are 12 - 3 = 9 rubies remaining (x).

4. **New Value After Subtracting Rubies:**
   - The new value is g - x = 159 - 9 = 150.

5. **Count of Remaining Gems in the Second Chest (s):**
   - There were 23 pearls + 11 zirconias = 34 gems in the second chest.
   - After discarding 9, there are 34 - 9 = 25 gems remaining (s).

6. **Final Value (m):**
   - The final value is the new value minus the count of remaining gems: m = 150 - 25 = 125.

### Answer: 125 

Expected answer: 125

Correct? Yes

Problem: There are 6 confirmed UFO sightings in a small city. After a viral event, sightings increase by a daily average obtained by dividing an additional 504 sightings over the next 14 days. Subtract the initial confirmed sightings from this new daily average. Then, multiply it by the result of taking the maximum number of sightings recorded in one day (9) and subtracting the number you would typically dismiss as random (3). How many sightings are there according to this calculation?

Gemini-1.5 Flash:

Here's how we can break down the problem step by step:

1. **Calculate the daily average increase:** 504 sightings / 14 days = 36 sightings per day.

2. **Subtract the initial sightings from the daily average:** 36 sightings/day - 6 sightings = 30 sightings/day.

3. **Calculate the difference between the maximum and dismissed sightings:** 9 sightings - 3 sightings = 6 sightings.

4. **Multiply the difference from step 2 by the difference from step 3:** 30 sightings/day * 6 sightings = 180 sightings.

Problem: A blanket maker has 5 square patches of blue material. She wants to make an intricate design that requires her to subtract this from 26*25 square patches of red material. Then, she wants to compare this number to her stock of green material, which is 48*21 square patches, by subtracting the number of red patches from the green patches. How many patches is the difference between her stock of green patches and the red patches needed for the design?

Gemini-1.5 Flash:

Reasoning: The blanket maker needs 26*25 = <<26*25=650>>650 red patches.
She needs 650-5 = <<650-5=645>>645 red patches after subtracting the blue patches.
She has 48*21 = <<48*21=1008>>1008 green patches.
The difference between the green and red patches is 1008-645 = <<1008-645=363>>363 patches.

Problem: Lemonville is a small village known for its lemon trees. One year, the villagers picked 38 baskets of lemons from the trees near the river and 24 baskets from the ones near an old well. From the trees near the school, they picked 16 more baskets and from the trees near the mayor's house, they picked 13 more baskets. They realized that their lemons were heavier and they could extract more juice so they decided to get 35 baskets to make lemonade. If each basket of lemons could produce 14 bottles of lemonade, how many bottles of lemonade would they get from the remaining baskets?

Gemini-1.5 Flash:

Here's how to solve this problem step-by-step:

1. **Total baskets from all trees:**
   - River: 38 baskets
   - Old well: 24 baskets
   - School: 38 + 16 = 54 baskets
   - Mayor's house: 54 + 13 = 67 baskets
   - Total baskets: 38 + 24 + 54 + 67 = 183 baskets

2. **Baskets used for lemonade:** 35 baskets

3. **Baskets remaining:** 183 - 35 = 148 baskets

4. **Total bottles of lemonade:** 148 baskets * 14 bottles/basket = 2072 bottles

Problem: A hiker traveled an average of 900 miles in 36 days. One day, he increases his daily average to 16 miles. This reduces his remaining journey by a certain number of days. After that, he finds a shortcut which saves him an additional 4 days, and a friendly traveller advised him of another path that will save him 40 days. If he also saves 21 days due to good weather, how many days in total did he save on his journey?

Gemini-1.5 Flash:

Here's how to break down the problem:

* **Initial daily average:** 900 miles / 36 days = 25 miles/day
* **Days saved by increasing daily average:** 
    * He increased his average by 16 miles - 25 miles = -9 miles/day. This means he's actually *slowing down*.
    * This doesn't save him any days, it actually makes the journey longer.
* **Days saved by the shortcut:** 4 days
* **Days saved by the friendly traveller's advice:** 40 days
* **Days saved by good weather:** 21 days

**Total days saved:** 4 days + 40 days + 21 days = 65 days

Problem: A clock ticks 504 times in 42 minutes. Similarly, another clock ticks 279 times in 31 minutes. Add 34 to the rate of the second clock's ticks per minute. Multiply the first clock's ticks per minute by 35 and then subtract 41 from it. Finally, subtract the rate of the second clock (after adding 34) from the manipulated rate of the first clock. What is the final value?

Gemini-1.5 Flash:

Here's how to solve this problem step-by-step:

**1. Calculate the tick rate of the first clock:**

* The first clock ticks 504 times in 42 minutes.
* Its tick rate is 504 ticks / 42 minutes = 12 ticks per minute.

**2. Calculate the tick rate of the second clock:**

* The second clock ticks 279 times in 31 minutes.
* Its tick rate is 279 ticks / 31 minutes = 9 ticks per minute.

**3. Add 34 to the second clock's tick rate:**

* The second clock's tick rate after adding 34 is 9 + 34 = 43 ticks per minute.

**4. Multiply the first clock's tick rate by 35:**

* The first clock's tick rate multiplied by 35 is 12 * 35 = 420 ticks.

**5. Subtract 41 from the manipulated first clock's tick rate:**

* The manipulated first clock's tick rate after subtracting 41 is 420 - 41 = 379 ticks.

**6. Subtract the second clock's manipulated tick rate from the manipulated first clock's tick rate:**

* The final value is 379 - 43 = 336.

Problem: The design of a classic wall clock dictates that there should be 1 number represented for every 12 around the clock face. However, your quirky modernist clockmaker friend wants to do things differently. They want to represent 37 hours on the clock's face, each hour has an equivalent of 1 square. Your friend has already completed 32 squares. They left their project for a while, and when they came back, they forgot how many squares they needed to fulfill their quirk. So they did some math to figure it out: they subtracted 32 from 37, added 42 to the result, and then subtracted 37 from that total. Suddenly, an idea occurred to them. What if they add 25 more squares for representing minutes on their quirky clock? Plus, they also wanted to add another 28 squares for seconds. Since your friend is a bit forgetful, they forgot how many squares they need again to finish their project. So, they did a little more math - added 41 to 25, followed by another 28, and then added 17 to the result. Because your friend didn't have enough material, they decided that they could reduce the total number of squares by 23. Finally, they added the number they figured out at the beginning (for hours) to this reduced number. Can you help your friend figure out how many squares they would need in total to complete their quirky clock?

   - They started with 37 hours and had already completed 32 squares: 37 - 32 = 5 squares left for hours
   - Then they did some unnecessary calculations: 5 + 42 - 37 = 10, but this doesn't change the number of hours squares needed.

2. **Minutes Calculation:**
   - They decided to add 25 squares for minutes.

3. **Seconds Calculation:**
   - They decided to add 28 squares for seconds.

4. **Additional Calculation:**
   - They did some more unnecessary calculations: 25 + 28 + 17 = 70, but this doesn't change the number of squares needed.

5. **Reduction:**
   - They decided to reduce the total number of squares by 23.

6. **Total Squares:**
   -  They need 5 squares for hours, 25 for minutes, and 28 for seconds: 5 + 25 + 28 = 58 squares.
   - They reduced the number by 23: 58 - 23 = 35 squares.

Therefore, your friend needs **35** squares to complete their quirky clock.

Problem: An orange farm produced 2 times the 28 pounds of oranges they typically produce in a single day due to a new method. This production also multiplied by the 15 days of the harvest period. If the farm then added 16 pounds of a rare orange variant to this harvest, how much did the farm produce in total?

Gemini-1.5 Flash:

Reasoning: The farm produced 28 pounds * 2 = <<28*2=56>>56 pounds of oranges a day with the new method.
In 15 days, the farm produced 56 pounds * 15 = <<56*15=840>>840 pounds of oranges.
Adding the rare orange variant, the farm produced 840 pounds + 16 pounds = <<840+16=856>>856 pounds of oranges.

Problem: A bus has 37 passengers. At the next stop, 20 more passengers get on. Before the bus reaches to the next stop, 44 passengers get off. Now, suppose this remaining number of passengers each pays an $11 fare, but the bus company also deducts a $14 service fee from the total fare. How much revenue does the bus company get?

Gemini-1.5 Flash:

Here's how to solve this step-by-step:

1. **Passengers after the first stop:** 37 passengers + 20 passengers = 57 passengers
2. **Passengers after the second stop:** 57 passengers - 44 passengers = 13 passengers
3. **Total fare collected:** 13 passengers * $11/passenger = $143
4. **Revenue after service fee:** $143 - $14 = $129

### Answer: $129 

Expected answer: 129

Correct? Yes

Problem: A pirate found a treasure chest with 13 emeralds, 42 rubies, and 19 sapphires. He gave away 43 of these precious gems to his crewmates. How many gems did the pirate have left?

Gemini-1.5 Flash:

Reasoning: The pirate started with 13 + 42 + 19 = <<13+42+19=74>> 74 gems.
After giving away 43 gems, he had 74 - 43 = <<74-43=31>> 31 gems left.

### Answer: 31 

Expected answer: 31

Correct? Yes

Problem: A certain reserve has 16 ginger giraffes. They then bring in the same number of golden giraffes as they had of the ginger ones. Later, they decide to add another group of 46 greyish giraffes. What is the total number of giraffes in the reserve now?

Gemini-1.5 Flash:

Reasoning: They brought in 16 golden giraffes.
Now the reserve has 16 + 16 = 32 ginger and golden giraffes.
After adding the greyish giraffes, there are 32 + 46 = 78 giraffes.
### Answer: 78 

Expected answer: 78

Correct? Yes

Problem: A turtle decides to swim. One day, it travels as many leagues as 11 plus 10, then multiplies that by 16 to get the total distance it swam that week. Later, it realized it had over calculated the distance by 41 leagues. What is the real distance it swam that week?

Gemini-1.5 Flash:

Reasoning: First, we need to figure out the number of leagues the turtle initially calculated.  11 + 10 = 21 leagues. Then, we multiply that by 16: 21 * 16 = 336 leagues.
Finally, we subtract the 41 leagues it overcalculated: 336 - 41 = 295 leagues.
