The fifth grade class at Rosa Parks Elementary School is holding a food drive. Half the students in Ms. Perez's class collected 12 cans each, two students didn't collect any, and the remaining 13 students students each collected 4 cans. If Ms. Perez's class has 30 students, how many cans did they collect total?
Then find how many students in Ms. Perez's class collected 12 cans each: 30 students / 2 = 
<gadget id="calculator">30/2</gadget>
<output>15</output>
15 students.
Then find how many cans the students who collected 12 cans each collected in total: 15 students * 12 cans/student = 
<gadget id="calculator">12*15</gadget>
<output>180</output>
180 cans.
Then find how many cans the students who collected 4 cans each collected in total: 13 students * 4 cans/student = 
<gadget id="calculator">4*13</gadget>
<output>52</output>
52 cans.
Then add both amounts of cans to find the total: 180 cans + 52 cans = 
<gadget id="calculator">180+52</gadget>
<output>232</output>
