Abdullah baked 276 cream tarts and 3 times as many fruit tarts as cream tarts. He gave away an equal number of cream tarts and fruit tarts. Then he had 4 times as many fruit tarts as cream tarts left. He sold all the rest of the cream tarts and fruit tarts at $1.80 each. How much money did Abdullah collect after selling the tarts?

Answer 1

Abdullah baked 276 cream tarts * 3 = <<276*3=828>>828 fruit tarts.
Abdullah gave away 276 cream tarts / 2 = <<276/2=138>>138 cream tarts.
He then gave away 138 cream tarts = 138 fruit tarts to match.
After giving away the same amount, he had 828 fruit tarts - 138 fruit tarts = <<828-138=690>>690 fruit tarts.
Abdullah had 4 * 138 cream tarts = <<4*138=552>>552 cream tarts left.
He had 690 fruit tarts + 552 cream tarts = <<690+552=1242>>1242 total tarts left.
He sold all of the fruit and cream tarts at 1242 total tarts * $1.80/tart = $<<1242*1.8=2235.6>>2235.6. Answer: \boxed{2235.6}.
