Answer:

35

Explanation:

First, we add the ratio of the mango to strawberry ice cream and we're going to end up with 2+5=7. If we divide 49 by 7, we're going to find out how much we need to multiply to both sides of the ratio to get the specific amounts. So, if we multiply 7 (49/7) to 5, we're going to get 35. Therefore the number of strawberry ice cream is 35.

Also, we can check this by multiplying 7 to 2 as well, where we will end up with 14. 35 + 14 = 49 so we know this is correct!
