The amount of frozen fruit used to make smoothies is equal to the total number of frozen fruits minus the remainder of fruits after making smoothies.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Total number of frozen fruits = F

Let the amount of frozen fruits used for making smoothies = S

The remaining frozen fruits = R

Then

F - S = R

To get the amount of frozen fruits used to make smoothies, we make S the subject of the formula.

-S = R - F

S = F - R

That is, the amount of frozen fruit used to make smoothies is equal to the total number of frozen fruits minus the remainder of fruits after making smoothies.
