A yogurt shop is famous for its Super Supreme Sundae. It is a large serving of yogurt with 5 scoops of different toppings. On Friday, 29 people ordered the Super Supreme Sundae. The owner worked out that the shop used a total of 85 scoops of toppings to make these sundaes. Does that sound about right?

No. Each sundae has 5 scoops, so 29 × 5 = 145 scoops (or estimate 30 × 5 ≈ 150). 85 is far less than 145, so that number doesn’t sound right — it’s about 60 scoops too few.
