Requires $2$ ice-cream scoops and $6$ strawberries. Ramses wants to make sundaes and milkshakes with at most $25$ ice-cream scoops and $37$ strawberries. Let $S$ denote the number of sundaes he makes and $M$ the number of milkshakes he makes. Write an inequality that represents the condition based on the number of strawberries.

Q. Requires

2

ice-cream scoops and

6

strawberries. Ramses wants to make sundaes and milkshakes with at most

25

ice-cream scoops and

37

strawberries. Let

S

denote the number of sundaes he makes and

M

the number of milkshakes he makes. Write an inequality that represents the condition based on the number of strawberries.

Identify Quantity: Identify the number of strawberries required for each sundae and milkshake. Each sundae requires $6$ strawberries, and milkshakes do not require strawberries.
Set Up Inequality: Set up the inequality for the total number of strawberries used. Since only sundaes use strawberries, the total strawberries used is $6$ times the number of sundaes, $S$ .
Write Maximum Limit Inequality: Write the inequality based on the maximum strawberries available. Ramses can use at most $37$ strawberries, so the inequality is: $\newline$ $6S \leq 37$
