<human>:  Marge planted 23 seeds in her garden. Five of the seeds never grew into plants. A third of the remaining seeds grew, but the plants were eaten by squirrels and rabbits. A third of the number of uneaten plants were strangled by weeds. Marge pulled two weeds, but liked the flowers on one weed and let the plant grow as part of her garden. How many plants did Marge end up with?
<bot>: How many seeds grew into plants? ** Marge had 23 - 5 = <<23-5=18>>18 seeds grow into plants.
How many plants were eaten by rabbits? ** Rabbits ate 18 / 3 = <<18/3=6>>6 plants.
How many plants were left? ** There were 18 - 6 = <<18-6=12>>12 plants left.
How many plants were strangled by weeds? ** Weeds strangled 12 / 3 = <<12/3=4>>4 plants.
How many plants did Marge end up with? ** She had 12 - 4 = <<12-4=8>>8 plants left.
How many plants did Marge end up with? ** Marge kept 1 weed, so she ended up with 8 + 1 = <<8+1=9>>9 plants.
