Question

An ice cream shop is testing some new flavors of ice cream. They invent 252525 new flavors for customers to try, and throw out the 131313 least popular flavors. The shop makes 808080 cartons of each of the remaining flavors. It takes 222 cartons to get one liter (\text{L})(L)left parenthesis, start text, L, end text, right parenthesis of ice cream. How much total ice cream is in the cartons?

Answer 1

480litres total ice cream

Explanation:

Total number of ice cream invented for customers to try = 25 new flavours

Amount of least popular flavors thrown out = 13 flavors

Remaining flavor nit thrown out = Total ice cream invented - amount thrown out = 25 - 13

= 12 flavors

The remaining number flavors that was produced is 12 flavors.

If 80 cartons of each of the remaining flavor was made, the total amount of cartons made = 12* 80 = 960 cartons.

Since 2 cartons contains 1 litre

960 cartons will contains (960*1/2) litres

Hence 960 cartons will contain 480litres of the ice cream.

This shows that there are total of 480 litres of ice cream in the cartons
