An ice cream store sells ice cream in a cup or in a cone. It sells 7 cones for every 3 cups of ice cream it sells. If 220 people buy ice cream at the store today, how may cones would the store sell?

• : I m not sure of my answer but i think its correct...
  
  
  7 cones/ 3 cups of ice cream.
  
  The nearest multiple of 3 to 220 is 219
  
   one cone per cup = 7/3 ( 7 cones for 3 cups )
  
  Total no of cups sold = 219*  One cone per cup
                                       = 219* 7/3 
                                       = 511 cones
  
  Therefore, the number of cones the store would sell is 511 cones.
  
  
  
  
• Amye: 3cups+7cones=10 altogether
  22x10= 220 customers
  22x7=154
  3x22=66
  So 154 cones
