9 apples per basket
Peter is making 8 identical fruit baskets. If the baskets are identical, that means they all have the same amount of fruit in them. If I know how many apples were used, then I can divide that by the total number of baskets (8) to find out how many apples were used per basket.
12 oranges were used per basket. There were 8 baskets. 12 x 8 = 96, so 96 oranges were used in total.
168 - 96 = 72
There were 72 apples used in total.
There were the same amount of apples in each of the 8 fruit baskets. 72/8 = 9, which means that there were 9 apples per fruit basket.

Answer: add 22 with $18.55 divide 50%
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 48
=================================================
Explanation:
The keyword "of" means multiply
150% converts to the decimal form 1.5; you move the decimal point two spots to the left to go from percent form to decimal form
Putting those two facts together lead to...
150% of 32 = 1.5*32 = 48
----------------
Another approach:
x% = x/100
150% = 150/100 = 1.5
150% of 32 = 1.5*32 = 48
The last step is identical as before, but the conversion of 150% is slightly different this time.
------------------
Yet another approach:
100% of anything is itself
So 100% of 32 is 32
The extra 50% means we take half of 32 to get 16. Then we add that onto the 32 to get 16+32 = 48
