if the ice cream shop were to try to sell its ice cream at local grocery stores, which product should it sell?

b. cookies and cream
c. vanilla
d. mint chocolate chip

Explanation:

Step1: Compare the percentages

We have the percentages for each flavor: Mint chocolate chip (28%), Strawberry (20%), Cookies and cream (24%), Vanilla (12%), Butterscotch (16%).

Step2: Find the highest percentage

Since \(28\%>24\%>20\%>16\%>12\%\), the flavor with the highest percentage (most - preferred among the sampled customers) is Mint chocolate chip. So the ice - cream shop should sell Mint chocolate chip.

Answer:

D. Mint chocolate chip
