Richard works at an icecream shop, regular cones get two scoops of icecream; large gets three scoops of icecream. Richard scoops 234 regular cones and 156 large cones. one scoop of icecream is 3 ounces. a tub of icecream weighs 10 pounds. How many tubs of icream did richard use?

Respuesta :

The total number of scoops of ice cream that Richard got from the tub is,
   (234 regular cones) x (2 scoops / 1 regular cone) + (156 large cones) x (2 scoops / 1 large cone) = 936 scoops

Given that each scoop weighs 3 ounces, the total weight of the ice cream is 2808 ounces. For the number of tubs,
          (2808 ounces) x (1 lb / 16 ounces) x (1 tub /10 lb) = 17.55
Thus, the answer is 18.

17.55 is correct
