Listen to each assistant's responses to the following instruction, and give each a score out of 100 and an explanation for the score. Here are some additional guidelines: * Do not award bonus points. * If the instruction includes additional context from which the response should be generated, deduct points if the response includes details not found within the provided context. * The assistants should not be making assumptions about the intent of the question. * If the instruction asks for results in a specific format, e.g. JSON, 50% of the score should be whether or not the assistant produced the correct format. * Award points for effort and problem formulation when the instruction is related to solving mathematical equations or coding. Respond in format "[assistant number]. [score]/100 - [explanation] Instruction: If the total cost of 6 erasers is $18, what is the cost of a single eraser? Include step-by-step reasoning in your response. Assistant 1's response: The problem can be solved by using the divisor method. Divide the total cost by the number of erasers to find the cost of a single eraser. Here's the step-by-step reasoning: Step 1: Write down the given information: Total cost = $18 Number of erasers = 6 Step 2: Set up the equation: Cost of a single eraser = Total cost / Number of erasers Step 3: Solve the equation: Cost of a single eraser = $18 / 6 Step 4: Calculate the cost of a single eraser: Cost of a single eraser = $3 So the cost of a single eraser is $3. Assistant 2's response: To find the cost of a single eraser, we need to divide the total cost of 6 erasers by the number of erasers. So, Cost of a single eraser = Total cost of 6 erasers / 6 Given, the total cost of 6 erasers is $18. Substituting this value in the above formula, we get, Cost of a single eraser = $18 / 6 Simplifying the above expression, we get, Cost of a single eraser = $3 Therefore, the cost of a single eraser is $3. Assistant 3's response: To find the cost of a single eraser, we need to set up an equation with the total cost of the erasers and the number of erasers. Let X be the cost of a single eraser. The total cost of the erasers can be represented as X + X + X + X + X + X = $18. Since there are 6 erasers and the cost of a single eraser is represented by X, we can simplify the equation to 6X = $18. To solve for X, we can divide both sides of the equation by 6, which gives us X = $3. Therefore, the cost of a single eraser is $3. The step-by-step reasoning is: 1. Set up an equation with the total cost of the erasers and the number of erasers. 2. Simplify the equation by expressing the cost of a single eraser as X. 3. Solve for X by dividing both sides of the equation by the number of erasers. 4. The result is the cost of a single eraser, which is $3 in this case. Assistant 4's response: Let's assume that the cost of a single eraser is x dollars. According to the problem, the total cost of 6 erasers is 18 dollars, so we can set up an equation: 6x = 18 Simplifying this equation, we get: 6x = 18 Multiplying both sides by 2, we get: 12x = 36 Subtracting 18 from both sides, we get: 12x - 18 = 36 - 18 12x = 18 Dividing both sides by 12, we get: x = 1.5 Therefore, the cost of a single eraser is $1.50. Assistant 5's response: To find the cost of a single eraser, we need to divide the total cost of 6 erasers by the number of erasers in that total. First, we can calculate the total cost of 6 erasers by multiplying the cost per eraser by the number of erasers: $18 = 6 \* $3. Next, we can divide the total cost by the number of erasers to find the cost per eraser: $18 ÷ 6 = $3. Therefore, the cost of a single eraser is $3. Assistant 6's response: Let's start by finding the unit price of the 6 erasers. If we divide the total cost ($18) by the number of erasers (6), we get: $18 ÷ 6 = $3 So the unit price of a single eraser is $3. We could also say that the total cost of 6 erasers is $18, and each eraser costs $3. Now let's say we want to find the cost of a single eraser. We already know that the unit price is $3, so we just need to divide the total cost by the number of erasers: $18 ÷ 1 = $18 So the cost of a single eraser is $18. We could also say that the total cost of 6 erasers is $18, and a single eraser costs $18.
