solution:

Lets start with the most amount that could have been sold ... using guess and check, we can figure out that 290 salads could have been sold, while 8 cartons of milk would have been sold.

The least amount of salads that could have been sold were none.

so,

you have 0
at least none were sold, and at most 290 were sold

but I do believe you are missing part of the question
