Sandra has a box of apples that weighs 120 pounds. She's going to use half the weight in apples to make applesauce. The rest will be used to make apple pies. She needs 4 pounds of apples per pie. How many pies will she be able to make? Let's think first. Chain of thought:

The box weighs 120 pounds and she's going to use half of it to make applesauce so she'll use 120 / 2 = 60 pounds for applesauce. The box weighs 120 pounds and she'll use 60 pounds for applesauce so that leaves 120 - 60 = 60 pounds of apples. She has 60 pounds of apples and she needs 4 pounds to make a pie so she can make 60 / 4 = 15 pies.
Therefore, the answer is 15.
