To find the total potential revenue, we need to divide the total amount of popcorn kernels by the amount used per serving, and then multiply by the price per serving.
Total potential revenue = (Total amount of popcorn kernels / Amount used per serving) * Price per serving
Total potential revenue = (19,717 grams / 196 grams) * $5
Simplifying the expression inside the parentheses:
Total potential revenue = 100.6 * $5
Calculating the total potential revenue:
Total potential revenue = $503
Therefore, the carnival will make approximately $503 in potential revenue from the popcorn sales.
