question:From his apartment, Kona drives 9 miles to the bakery. From there, he drives 24 miles to his grandmother’s house. From her house, he drives 27 miles straight to his apartment. How many additional miles did Kona drive round trip to the bakery stop, compared to a round trip without the bakery stop?
answer:With the bakery stop, Kona drove a total of 9 + 24 + 27 = <<9+24+27=60>>60 miles. Without the bakery stop, Kona drove a total of 27 + 27 = <<27+27=54>>54 miles. With the bakery stop, Kona drives an additional 60 - 54 = <<60-54=6>>6 miles. 6
question:Tina decides to fill a jar with coins. In the first hour she puts in 20 coins. During the next two hours she puts in 30 coins each time. During the fourth hour she puts in 40 coins. During the fifth hour her mother asks to borrow some money so she takes 20 coins out. How many coins are left after the fifth hour?

question:Miles and Daphne are comparing their reading collection and want to figure out who has more pages. They are about to count each page, but their parents suggest that they see whose collection is taller. Mile's collection is taller, but then Daphne notices that Miles reads board books, and so the pages are thicker. After some more measuring, they figure out that for Miles, 1 inch equals 5 pages, but for Daphne 1 inch equals 50 pages. If Miles's books are 240 inches tall and Daphne's collection is 25 inches tall, how many pages are in the longest collection?
answer:Miles's collection has 1,200 pages because 240 x 5 = <<240*5=1200>>1,200 Daphne's collection has 1,250 pages because 25 x 50 = <<25*50=1250>>1,250 The largest collection has 1,250 pages because 1,250 > 1,200 1250
