Answer :
Answer:
17.55 tubs
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1
Find out the total scoops of ice cream in 234 regular cones and 156 large cones
[tex]234(2)+156(3)=936\ scoops[/tex]
step 2
Find out the weight of the total scoops
we know that
One scoop of ice cream is 3 ounces
so
[tex]936(3)=2,808\ ounces[/tex]
step 3
Convert ounces to pounds
Remember that
1 pound = 16 ounces
so
To convert ounces to pounds divide by 16
[tex]2,808/16=175.5\ pounds[/tex]
step 4
Find out how many ice cream tubs Richard used to make the cones
we know that
A tub of ice cream weighs 10 pounds
Divide the total weight in pounds by 10
[tex]175.5/10=17.55\ tubs[/tex]
Answer:

- Regular cones: Each has 2 scoops. So, for 234 regular cones, the total scoops are:- Large cones: Each has 3 scoops. So, for 156 large cones, the total scoops are:2. Find the total number of scoops:3. Convert scoops to ounces:- Since each scoop is 3 ounces, the total ounces of ice cream are:
4. Convert ounces to pounds- Using the conversion , the total pounds of ice cream are: 5. Calculate the number of tubs:- Since each tub weighs 10 pounds, the number of tubs used is:Since Richard can't use a fraction of a tub, he would need 18 tubs to have enough ice cream.
