Answer: 8 sundaes

Explanation:

Given: To make 1 sundae, the total number of spoons use of sprinkles= 4

Let the number of sundaes made in 32 spoonfuls of sprinkles be x.

Also the number of sprinkles and the number of sundaes are directly proportional.

Therefore,

`(x)/(32)=(1)/(4)\\\Rightarrow\ x=(1*32)/(4)\\\Rightarrow\ x=8`

Hence, if 32 spoonfuls of sprinkles is used, then the ice- cream shop can make 8 sundaes.
