In her bakery, Teal sells pumpkin pie and custard pie by the slice. The pumpkin pie is cut into 8 pieces. The custard pie is cut into 6 pieces. Pumpkin pie is $5 a slice. Custard pie is $6 a slice. If Teal sells 4 pumpkin pies and 5 custard pies, how much money does she make from her sales? Give me reasons, before answering the question
Teal sells 8 x 4 = 32 pumpkin slices. She sells 6 x 5 = 30 custard slices. Pumpkin pie slice sales make 32 x $5 = $160. Custard pie slice sales make 30 x $6 = $180. Total amount of money she makes is $160 + $180 = $340. So the final answer is 340.
