    We had 12 pumpkin seeds. We almost planted all of them when Mom said we would not have enough room for all of them so we took three seeds away and planted the rest. They all grew into giant pumpkins. How many pumpkins did we get? 9 Pumpkins

    There were 54 pumpkins in the pumpkin patch. There were no pumpkins left after six families visited the pumpkin patch. If each family took the same number of pumpkins, how many pumpkins did each family take home? -- Hailey A.
