I used to be the light of your life, I’d keep you warm while I cried, Now I’m forgotten and tossed away.
What am I?
A candle. They used to be a primary source of light, and to a lesser extent heat. The “crying” is the wax rolling down the candle.

I am an animal of few letters, Remove the second and you can’t see, Change it to “l” and I’m a punishment, Yet backwards I’m a game.
What am I?
Frog. It only has four letters, removing the “r” leaves fog, which makes it hard to see. Changing the “r” to an “l” makes flog, a punishment I hope you’ve never experienced. Flog backwards is golf, a game some would call a punishment when you keep swinging away at the ball yet it remains perched on its little white tower of terror while the other golfers impatiently wait for you to tee off.

Paula had four times the money that Quincy had, but after Paula gave Quincy $33, Quincy had 3 times as much as Paula.
How much did they each start with?
Paula had $48 and Quincy had $12.
If Q is the amount Quincy had, then 3(4Q – 33) = Q + 33
Solved, Q = 12.
