Hi Hraban,

Here’s an example from my textbook which might be helpful. I use this 
enumeration for example problems, but exercises could be similar. You have 
access to the rest of the textbook, so feel free to grab anything useful.

In the environment file:

% Example Problems
\defineenumeration[example]
\setupenumeration[example][
        margin=no,
        headstyle=\ss\sc,
        text=Example, % This text is part of the number, e.g. "Example 2.3"
        style=\ss,
        alternative=serried,
        title=no, % This would be a title after the number
        prefix=yes, % Turns on the prefix
        prefixsegments=chapter, % makes the prefix the chapter number
        way=bychapter, % Numbers within each chapter
        %margin=standard, % Indents block on the left
        width=fit, % Makes the space between the number and the question a good 
size
        indentnext=no,
]
\definedelimitedtext[solution][
        spacebefore=medium,
        spaceafter=medium,
        style=\rm\it,
        leftmargin=standard, % Indents block on the left
        rightmargin=yes, % Indents block on the right
        indentnext = no,
]


In the text:

\startexample[ex:organ]
What interval is produced by two consecutive thirds?
\startsolution
We wish to add a third to a third.
\startformula
        \text{3rd} + \text{3rd} = 2\units{steps} + 2\units{steps} = 
4\units{steps} = \text{5th}
\stopformula
Two thirds produce a fifth.
\stopsolution
\stopexample
