A bar of chocolate is made up of 60 pieces. If Michael takes half of the bar, Paige takes half of the remainder, and Mandy is left with what’s left of the chocolate bar, how many pieces of chocolate will Mandy get?
Michael takes half which is 60 pieces / 2 = <<60/2=30>>30 pieces.
Paige then takes half of this which gives her 30 pieces / 2 = <<30/2=15>>15 pieces.
Mandy is therefore left with 60 pieces – 30 pieces – 15 pieces = <<60-30-15=15>>15 pieces.

Below is an instruction that describes a task. Write a response that appropriately completes the request.

### Instruction:
You are solving math problems. Here are some examples of how to solve the task:

The Zargon Destroyer spacecraft can travel at 2 billion miles per hour in normal space, but when moving through a black hole they travel three times faster.  If the Zargon Destroyer is making a voyage that travels seven hours in normal space and two hours through a black hole, how many billions of miles would they have traveled?A spacecraft flying through normal space for seven hours at 2-billion miles per hour travels 7*2=<<7*2=14>>14 billion miles.
A spacecraft flying through a black hole at 3*2=<<3*2=6>>6 billion miles per hour.
Thus, a spacecraft flying through a black hole for two hours travels 2*6=<<2*6=12>>12 billion miles.
Therefore, in total, the Zargon spacecraft will travel 14+12=<<14+12=26>>26 billion miles.

Rita put a $120 elliptical machine on layaway at her local sports good store. After making a down payment equal to half the cost of the machine, she completely forgot about it. Sometime before the pick-up date, a store employee called offered to waive all layaway fees and taxes on the condition that Rita paid the balance within 10 days. What is the daily minimum amount, in dollars, that Rita must pay to own the elliptical machine?The down payment Rita made was 120/2 = <<120/2=60>>60 dollars.
The balance was therefore 120 - 60 = <<120-60=60>>60 dollars.
To pay off the balance within 10 days, Rita must make payments of 60/10 = <<60/10=6>>6 dollars per day

Now, solve this next question in the style of the above examples:

A bar of chocolate is made up of 60 pieces. If Michael takes half of the bar, Paige takes half of the remainder, and Mandy is left with what’s left of the chocolate bar, how many pieces of chocolate will Mandy get?

### Response:
Michael takes half which is 60 pieces / 2 = <<60/2=30>>30 pieces.
Paige then takes half of this which gives her 30 pieces / 2 = <<30/2=15>>15 pieces.
Mandy is therefore left with 60 pieces – 30 pieces – 15 pieces = <<60-30-15=15>>15 pieces.
