Wendy is a fruit vendor, and she sells an apple at $1.50 each and one orange at $1. In the morning, she was able to sell an average of 40 apples and 30 oranges. In the afternoon, she was able to sell 50 apples and 40 oranges. How much are her total sales for the day?
Let's think: There were an average of 40 + 50 = 90 apples. And, there were 30 + 40 = 70 oranges. Thus, Wendy gained 90 x $1.50 = $135 for selling apples. And, she gained an additional 70 x $1 = $70 for selling oranges. Therefore, her total sales for the day is $135 + 70 = $205.. The answer is: 205.

There are 8 loads of laundry that need to be washed. Each load of laundry takes around 45 minutes to complete in the wash cycle and 1 hour in the dry cycle. How long, in hours, will it take to complete the entire set of laundry?
Let's think: Each load takes 60 + 45 = 105 minutes. There are 8 loads that take 8 * 105 = 840 minutes. It takes 840 / 60 = 14 hours.. The answer is: 14.

Harrison buys a regular croissant on Saturdays for $3.50 and an almond croissant for $5.50 on Sundays. How much does he spend on croissants in a year?
Let's think: He buys a plain croissant for $3.50 and an almond croissant for $5.50 for a total of $3.50 + $5.50 = $9.00 on pastries per weekend. In one year, which is 52 weeks, he spends 52 * $9 = $468.00 on pastries.. The answer is: 468.

The teacher agrees to order pizza for the class. For every student in the class, she will buy 2 pieces of cheese and 1 piece of onion and they will eat exactly that amount. A large pizza has 18 slices. She orders 6 total pizzas and there are 8 pieces of cheese and 4 pieces of onion leftover. How many students are in the class?
Let's think:
Cheese pizzas are 2 / 3 of the pizza's purchased because 2 / (2 + 1) = 2 / 3. She buys 4 cheese pizzas because 6 x (2 / 3) = 4. These give her 72 pieces of cheese pizza because 4 x 18 = 72. The students at 64 pieces of cheese because 72 - 8 = 64. There are 32 students in her class because 64 / 2 = 32.. The answer is: 32.
