Answers
When questions require complete sentences as answers, several variations of the answer are often possible depending on whether contractions are used, whether separable phrasal verbs are separated, and whether the object of the phrasal verb is repeated in the answer, replaced by a pronoun, or ellipted (not repeated because it is understood). The answers given below would be natural and likely in everyday American English — contractions
are used more often than not and separable phrasal verbs are separated more often than not — but any grammatical and logical sentence with the correct verb in the correct tense is acceptable. Phrasal verbs separated by their objects (but not adverbs or adverbials) are indicated with three dots between the verb and particle. Remember that questions asked with / or we are answered with you, and questions asked with you are answered with / or we.
