To find the potential revenue from popcorn sales, we need to determine the number of servings they can make and then multiply that by the price per serving.
The number of servings is equal to the total amount of popcorn kernels divided by the amount used per serving:
Number of servings = 19,717 grams / 196 grams = 100.5 servings (approximately)
Since we cannot have a fraction of a serving, we will round down to 100 servings.
Now we can calculate the potential revenue:
Potential revenue = Number of servings * Price per serving = 100 servings * $5 = $500
So the carnival would make approximately $500 in potential revenue from popcorn sales. Therefore, the correct option is:
O $500
A carnival wants to estimate its total potential revenue on popcorn sales. They have 19,717 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? (1 point)
O $500
O $475
O $100
O $950
