question:Andy can get 50 demerits in a month before getting fired. If he got 2 demerits per instance for showing up late 6 times and 15 demerits for making an inappropriate joke, how many more demerits can he get this month before getting fired?
answer:Andy got 2 demerits per instance for showing up late 6 times, so he got 2 * 6 = <<2*6=12>>12 demerits for being late. He also got 15 demerits for making an inappropriate joke. In total, Andy got 12 + 15 = <<12+15=27>>27 demerits this month. He can get 50 demerits in a month before getting fired, so he can get 50 - 27 = <<50-27=23>>23 more demerits before getting fired. 23 The answer is: 23

Therefore, she made 27 - 16 = 11 more from selling plain lemonade than from selling strawberry lemonade. 11 The answer is: 11
