Let us assume number of toppings = n

Total weight of sundae = s

Quantity of Ice cream = 222 kilograms.

We need to discribe the total weight of the special sundae in kilograms by an inequality.

The sundae contains ice cream and number of toppings. So the total weight of the sundae will be greater than the total weight of ice cream and number of toppings, because there would be some weight of the packing.

Therefore,

The total weight of the sundae > total weight of ice cream + weight of toppings.

s > 222 + n.

Where, s is the total weight of the sundae and n is the weight of toppings.
