Answer:

Marc collects $72 for all of the pies

Explanation:

The total pounds of apples Marc has = 36

The number of pounds required for each pie = 4

The number of pies made from 36 pounds =
(36)/(4) = 9 pies.

The cost of one eapple pie = $8

Cost of 9 pies = 9 (8) = $72

Marc collects $72 for all of the pies
