A carnival wants to estimate its total potential revenue on popcorn sales, they have 19,717 G of popcorn kernels, and each serving uses 196 grams. Each serving sells for $5. If they sell the popcorn, approximately how much potential revenue will the carnival make?
$950
$500
$100
475
To estimate the total potential revenue the carnival can make on popcorn sales, we need to divide the total weight of popcorn kernels by the weight used per serving.
Total potential revenue = (Total weight of popcorn kernels) / (Weight used per serving) * (Price per serving)
Total potential revenue = (19,717 G) / (196 G) * ($5)
Total potential revenue = 100 * $5
Total potential revenue = $<<100*5=500>>500
Therefore, the carnival can potentially make $500 on popcorn sales.
