The document discusses preferences for chocolate versus vanilla ice cream among students at a school barbecue. It notes that 4 out of every 10 people prefer chocolate ice cream. Based on this, it calculates that if 350 people are attending, 140 (4/10 of 350) will eat chocolate ice cream. It then calculates that with each person eating 250g of ice cream, 35,000g or 35kg of chocolate ice cream will need to be purchased.

3. If you split the the 300 into
three parts then it will become 100.
Answer
100 equals to ten because 10 times 10
equals to 100. If 4 out of 10 people
order chocolate then that equals to
40 people out of 100.
250 x 350= 35000
