Mrs bang baked 120 pies. She packed 6 pies in each box. She sold each box of pies for $12. How much did she collect altogether if she sold all the pies she baked?
To find out how much Mrs. Bang collected from selling all the pies, we need to calculate the number of boxes she packed and then multiply that by the price she sold each box of pies for.
1. First, let's determine the number of boxes by dividing the total number of pies by the number of pies per box:
Number of boxes = Total pies / Pies per box
Number of boxes = 120 pies / 6 pies per box
Number of boxes = 20 boxes
2. Next, we calculate the total amount collected by multiplying the number of boxes by the price of each box:
Total amount collected = Number of boxes * Price per box
Total amount collected = 20 boxes * $12 per box
Total amount collected = $240
So, if she sold all the pies she baked, Mrs. Bang collected a total of $240.
