idk pls help me
To find the number of caramel apples covered with sprinkles, we need to know the number of caramel apples covered with peanuts, chocolate chips, and coconut. Let's calculate it step by step:
1. Find the total number of caramel apples sold that are covered with peanuts, chocolate chips, and coconut:
peanuts = (1/5) x 150 = 30 caramel apples (since 1/5 of the caramel apples are covered with peanuts)
chocolate chips = (2/5) x 150 = 60 caramel apples (since 2/5 of the caramel apples are covered with chocolate chips)
coconut = (1/5) x 150 = 30 caramel apples (since 1/5 of the caramel apples are covered with coconut)
2. Calculate the total number of caramel apples covered with peanuts, chocolate chips, and coconut:
total = peanuts + chocolate chips + coconut
= 30 + 60 + 30
= 120 caramel apples (covered with peanuts, chocolate chips, or coconut)
3. Finally, calculate the number of caramel apples covered with sprinkles:
sprinkles = Total caramel apples - Caramel apples with toppings
= 150 - 120
= 30 caramel apples
Therefore, there are 30 caramel apples covered with sprinkles.
