A total of 248 sprinkles are needed to cover 4 donuts. At this rate, it would take __ sprinkles to cover 10 donuts. 600 620 710 1,200 2,480

## Step 1<br />The problem provides us with a ratio of sprinkles to donuts, which is 248 sprinkles for 4 donuts. This can be simplified to 62 sprinkles per donut.<br /><br />## Step 2<br />To find out how many sprinkles are needed to cover 10 donuts, we multiply the number of donuts by the number of sprinkles per donut.<br /><br />### **Formula**: <br />The formula to calculate the number of sprinkles needed is:<br /><br />\[<br />\text{{Number of sprinkles}} = \text{{Number of donuts}} \times \text{{Sprinkles per donut}}<br />\]<br /><br />## Step 3<br />Substitute the given values into the formula:<br /><br />\[<br />\text{{Number of sprinkles}} = 10 \times 62<br />\]
