Step-by-Step Solution:
####
Step 1: Determine how many apples each child receives.
The farmer has 480 apples, and he wants to distribute them equally among his 6 children. This is a division problem:
\[
\text{Apples per child} = \frac{\text{Total apples}}{\text{Number of children}} = \frac{480}{6}
\]
Perform the division:
\[
480 \div 6 = 80
\]
So, each child receives
80 apples.

####
Step 2: Calculate how much money each child earns from selling their apples.
Each child sells their apples at a rate of 5 apples per dollar. To find out how much money each child earns, we need to divide the number of apples each child has by the rate of sale (5 apples per dollar):
\[
\text{Money earned per child} = \frac{\text{Apples per child}}{\text{Rate of sale}} = \frac{80}{5}
\]
Perform the division:
\[
80 \div 5 = 16
\]
So, each child earns
16 dollars.

####
Step 3: Verify the total amount of money earned by all children combined.
There are 6 children, and each child earns 16 dollars. To find the total amount of money earned by all children, we multiply the money earned per child by the number of children:
\[
\text{Total money earned} = \text{Money earned per child} \times \text{Number of children} = 16 \times 6
\]
Perform the multiplication:
\[
16 \times 6 = 96
\]
So, the total amount of money earned by all children combined is
96 dollars.
---
Final Answers:
1. Each child receives
80 apples.
2. Each child earns
16 dollars.
3. The total amount of money earned by all children combined is
96 dollars.

Boxed Final Answer:
\[
\boxed{80, 16, 96}
\]
