: In 1988, a dairy in Canada, created a sundae with approximately 1 lb of topping for every 83.2 LB of ice cream. the total of the two ingredients weighed approximately 45,225 Lb. To the nearest tenth of a pound, how many pounds of ice cream and how many pounds of topping were there? This question is from textbook Intro algebra
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 45,225/(1+83.2)=45,225/84.2=537.1 total ice creams with toppings.
537.1*1=537.1 pounds of cream.
537.1*83.2=44,686.7 pounds of ice cream.
