The answer suppose to be in English.
$Given:$
P is a 3 digit prime number
Q,R,S,T are distinct digits( 0 to 9 )
QRS is a concatenated number
$Relationships:$
$P$ = $QRS + T$ = Reverse of $( QRS * T)$
Find P using just deductive reasoning.

Predict the next three members of the sequence below and explain what the relationship is.

With our pirate crew becoming too big, the captain grew very concerned about splitting all the treasure - we continued to split it equally, but, of course, each crew member got less and less with the time.
When the captain got sick of it, he gathered all the crew and made an announcement:
Pi...
I am a gap
Rearranged, an accelerator
Take one and rearrange, an animal
Rearrange that, a skin condition.
I am a gap
Take one and rearrange, a garden tool
Take one again and rearrange, a boat.
I am a gap
Take one and I'm a type of mouth.

I gave the answerer on my Useful Words™ a pretty huge hint. their answer rule is correct (so can be given the bounty) - I'd like them to solve the title before I award the checkmark
@Rubio Are we deleting program-based answers to no-computers puzzles now? Because program-based answers have long been a pet peeve of mine, so I'll flag a bunch if so :-)
@Randal'Thor I'm not going to go looking for them, and would prefer you not do so either. If they're encountered organically, and are flagged as NaA to the puzzle as stated, then (speaking for myself) I'll delete them as such.
I actually don't recall noticing any, but have not gone through anything resembling an exhaustive search. If it's not forbidden by the question tagging, I see nothing wrong with answers found programmatically. (And indeed have answered a few myself that way.)
@Rubio Sure, nothing wrong with it if the OP doesn't forbid. I don't downvote such answers, but I never upvote them either. Mostly because I don't understand them :-)
@Brandon_J Never mind. Seems to have been a split-second thing.
@Randal'Thor In many cases, the answer's correctness is self-evident. The solution path may not be, when it's enshrined in an algorithm. But ideally the answerer does more than belch out some code and a final answer, and actually explains the method the code follows. In cases like that, I'd have no problem upvoting, and I seem to remember encountering a decent number of answers that do just that.
I've seen a lot of answers which are totally incomprehensible to non-programmers like me. In fact I don't recall ever seeing one that explains the code rather than just providing it (unless maybe that explanation is also done in some way that only coders can understand).
I've seen examples of code just brute-force exhausting a search space. There's nothing interesting about the code or the method; it's just using a computer to do what you could otherwise do by hand. I have zero problem upvoting an answer derived that way, with no explanation needed. Of course I do code, so I can and usually do scan through the program to see if it's doing anything unexpected. But if the problem lends itself readily to brute force, I won't deny someone a vote for doing so.
Looking to create a puzzle / representation of any 3D shape using smaller 3D shape. Is there some sort of shape / ultimate 3D shape that can make any other 3D shape. Like a pyramid or sphere or cube or something?
I just came up with the following sequence of numbers.
25 26 27 28 30 30 ...
They all seem to be very close to one another... but what is the next number in the sequence?
From the pictures below, can you find the cartoon character?
EDIT: Edited the 3rd picture for clarity
A small hint:
$Given:$
P is a 3 digit prime number
Q,R,S,T are distinct digits( 0 to 9 )
QRS is a concatenated number
$Relationships:$
$P$ = $QRS + T$ = Reverse of $( QRS * T)$
Find P using just deductive reasoning.
