Crystal wanted to sell everything left in her pastry class before closing for the night.  She reduced her $3.00 cupcakes and her $2.00 cookies by half.  How much money did she make if she sold the last 16 cupcakes and 8 cookies?
She reduced the price of the $3.00 cupcakes by half so they are now 3/2 = $<<3/2=1.50>>1.50
She reduced the price of the $2.00 cookies by half so they are now 2/2= $<<2/2=1.00>>1.00
She sold 16 cupcakes at $1.50 each so she made = 16*1.50 = $<<16*1.50=24.00>>24.00
She sold 8 cookies at $1.00 each so she made 8*1 = $<<8*1=8.00>>8.00
She made $24.00 from the cupcakes and $8.00 from the cookies for a total of 24+8 = $<<24+8=32.00>>32.00
