Malcolm works in a company where they normally pack 40 apples in a box, producing 50 full boxes per day. Operations went as normal in one week. But in the next week, they packed 500 fewer apples per day. What's the total number of apples packed in the two weeks?

How many apples are packed in the first week? ** In the first week, each day they pack 40*50 = <<40*50=2000>>2000 apples
How many apples are packed in the first week? ** The total number of apples packed in the boxes is 2000*7 = <<2000*7=14000>>14000 apples in the first week.
How many apples were packed in the second week? ** When 500 fewer apples were packed each day in the next week, the total became 2000-500 = <<2000-500=1500>>1500 apples per day.
How many apples were packed in the second week? ** The total number of apples packed in the boxes that week is 1500*7 = <<1500*7=10500>>10500 apples.
How many apples were packed in the two weeks? ** The total is 14000+10500 = <<14000+10500=24500>>24500 apples for the two weeks
