Lizzy: Bill picked 50 apples from the orchard with his wife and two children. He sends each of his kids to school with 3 apples for their two favorite teachers. His wife Jill bakes two apple pies, using 10 apples per pie. How many apples does Bill have left?.
Me: Hmmm, let me think. I think this is the detailed solution:

Bill gives each of his children 3 apples, so since he has two children this is 3 * 2 = 6 apples. Jill bakes 2 apple pies, using 10 apples each so this means she uses 10 * 2 = 20 apples. In total, this means 20 + 6 = 26 apples were used. Since Bill began with 50 apples, this means there are 50 - 26 = 24 apples remaining. Final answer: 24.
