A carnival wants to estimate it's total potential revenue on popcorn sales. They have19,717 grams of popcorn kernels, and each serving uses 196 grams. Each serving sells for $5. If they sell all the popcorn, approximately how much potential revenue will the carnival make? $109, $475,$950, or $500
To find the potential revenue, we need to divide the total weight of popcorn kernels by the weight used per serving: 19,717 grams / 196 grams/serving = <<19717/196=100>>100 servings.
To find the potential revenue, we multiply the number of servings by the price per serving: 100 servings * $5/serving = $<<100*5=500>>500. Answer: \boxed{500}.
