# GSM8K Problem 1
Janet’s ducks lay 16 eggs per day. She eats three for breakfast every morning and bakes muffins for her friends every day with four. She sells the remainder at the farmers' market daily for $2 per fresh duck egg. How much in dollars does she make every day at the farmers' market?
Reason step by step, then give ONLY the final answer on the last line as \boxed{ANSWER}.

Proposed solution
To find out how much Janet makes every day, we need to determine how many eggs she has left to sell after using some for herself and her friends.
1. **Calculate the total number of eggs used:**
Janet eats 3 eggs for breakfast and uses 4 eggs to bake muffins.
$$3 + 4 = 7 \text{ eggs used}$$
2. **Calculate the number of eggs remaining for sale:**
The ducks lay 16 eggs per day. We subtract the eggs used from the total.
$$16 - 7 = 9 \text{ eggs remaining}$$
3. **Calculate the total earnings:**
Janet sells the remaining eggs at the farmers' market for $2 each.
$$9 \text{ eggs} \times \$2/\text{egg} = \$18$$
Janet makes $18 every day at the farmers' market.
\boxed{18}
