There are 6 forks in the cutlery drawer. There are 9 more knives than forks, and there are twice as many spoons as knives and half as many teaspoons as forks. After 2 of each cutlery is added to the drawer, how many pieces of cutlery are there in all? Give me reasons, before answering the question

There are 6 + 9 = 15 knives. There are 15 x 2 = 30 spoons. There are 6 / 2 = 3 teaspoons. There are 6 + 15 + 30 + 3 = 54 pieces before adding more cutlery. 2 of each 4 types of cutlery are added, and therefore 2 x 4 = 8 pieces added. In total there are 54 + 8 = 62 pieces of cutlery in the drawer. So the final answer is 62.
