conversations.value: This math problem has got me stumped: Mark makes custom dog beds. A bed for a Rottweiler takes 8 pounds of stuffing, a bed for a chihuahua takes 2 pounds of stuffing, and a bed for a collie takes the average amount of stuffing between the first two kinds of beds. How many pounds of stuffing does Mark need to make 4 chihuahua beds and 3 collie beds?
  Can you show me the way?

conversations.value: First, find the total amount of stuffing in one Rottweiler bed and one chihuahua bed: 2 pounds + 8 pounds = 10 pounds
  Then divide the total stuffing amount by 2 to find the average stuffing amount: 10 pounds / 2 = 5 pounds
  Then find the amount of stuffing in 4 chihuahua beds: 2 pounds/bed * 4 beds = 8 pounds
  Then find the amount of stuffing in 3 collie beds: 5 pounds/bed * 3 beds = 15 pounds
  Then add the two amounts of stuffing to find the total amount of stuffing needed: 8 pounds + 15 pounds = 23 pounds
