a scoop of chocolate.

In one year (52 weeks), Malik will order..........

scoops of

chocolate ice cream.

Answer 1

In one year (52 weeks), Malik will order 52 scoops of pistachio ice cream,

52 scoops of mango ice cream, and 104 scoops of

chocolate ice cream.

Explanation:

Since there are 52 weeks in 1 year,

And he orders Pistachio ice cream every Monday,

so, he will order 1 icecream per week,

so, in a year, he will order (1)(52) = 52 pistachio ice creams

Similarly, since he orders 1 mango ice cream per week,

In a year(52 weeks) he will order 52 mango ice creams

Finally, he orders chocolate on Wednesday and Thursday, so, in 1 week, he orders chocolate 2 times, hence in a year(52 weeks), he will order,

2(52) = 104 chocolate ice creams

Answer 2

52 × 1 = 52 scoops of pistachio ice cream

52 × 1 = 52 scoops of mango ice cream

52 × 2 = 104 scoops of chocolate ice cream
