In seven days they washed a total of 638.85 pounds of laundry. This means each day they washed about 91.26 pounds of laundry.

total pounds of laundry = amount of sheets + amount of towels

total in 7 days = 7 times the amount for each day so the amount for each day = total for 7 days divided by 7

find 285.38 + 353.47 then divide by 7
