Reasoning:
We know from before that 83 - 72 = 11
Adding the result from the previous problem (51) to the difference of 83 and 72:  51 + 11 = <<51+11=62>>62
### Answer: 62 

Expected answer: 62

Correct? Yes

Problem: Let's revisit our previous problem: instead of the original 2-digit number being 83, let's say it was 100 instead. We're still subtracting 72 from it. Then, we add 40 to the result, just like we did previously. What would be the resulting number now?

Gemini-1.5 Pro:

Reasoning:
Subtracting 72 from 100: 100 - 72 = <<100-72=28>>28
Adding 40 to the result: 28 + 40 = <<28+40=68>>68
### Answer: 68

Expected answer: 68

Correct? Yes

Problem: Before the cat arrived, there were only 54 mice in the field, instead of the 100 as previously thought. How many mice would there have been after the cat caught 30 mice?

Problem: After realizing the little prank his sister pulled on him, Ben sets off to retrieve his notes. He manages to find and get back some of his notes. After checking his collection, he realises that he now has just as many notes as he initially did minus the ones he has remaining after his sister's prank. How many notes did Ben manage to retrieve from his sister?

Gemini-1.5 Pro:

Reasoning: Ben initially had 54 notes, and he has 30 left after his sister took some. This means he needs to retrieve 54-30 = <<54-30=24>>24 notes to have the same amount as before. 
### Answer: 24

Expected answer: 24

Correct? Yes

Problem: Let's rewind and imagine a different scenario. This time, Ben initially had 30 secret notes from his school friends instead of 54. His little sister still took away 24 notes as a joke. In this situation, how many notes does Ben have left?

Problem: In a revision of the initial inventory, the toy store realizes there was a mistake and they originally only had 1 teddy bear in stock, not 28. But they did receive a shipment of 10 more teddy bears as mentioned before. Then, they received the shipment of 49 more teddy bears, as in the original scenario. How many teddy bears do they have in stock now after correcting the initial inventory error and receiving all the shipments?

Gemini-1.5 Pro:

Reasoning: After receiving the first shipment of 10 teddy bears, the store had 1 + 10 = <<1+10=11>>11 teddy bears.
After the second shipment, the store has a total of 11 + 49 = <<11+49=60>>60 teddy bears.

Problem: Originally, after selling 78 of the 100 new smartphones, Apple Inc. received an additional shipment of 41 new smartphones. But what if instead, the additional shipment contained 61 new smartphones? How many new smartphones would the store have in that case?

Gemini-1.5 Pro:

Reasoning:
As before, after the first day, the store had 100 - 78 = <<100-78=22>>22 new smartphones left.
With the larger shipment, they would then have a total of 22 + 61 = <<22+61=83>>83 new smartphones.
