    The correct answers are as follows

    2 * a + 1.5 * b = V.

    1 * c + 2 * d = M.

    3 * h + 1 * k = C = V + M.

    a + c + h = 100.

    b + d + k = 60.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    I Dream of Ice Cream, an ice cream factory that specializes in 3 flavors: Vanilla (V), Chocolate (C), and Mint (M).

    Let I Dream of Ice Cream makes V amount of Vanilla flavored ice cream.

    Let I Dream of Ice Cream makes M amount of Mint flavored ice cream.

    Let I Dream of Ice Cream makes C ( = V + M) amount of Chocolate flavored ice cream as chocolate is more popular than the other two.

    Into each batch of Vanilla go 2 eggs and 1.5 cups of milk. Let a eggs and b cups of milk are added to make vanilla ice cream.

    ∴ 2 * a + 1.5 * b = V.

    Into each batch of Mint go 1 egg and 2 cups of milk. Let c eggs and d cups of milk are added to make mint ice cream.

    ∴ 1 * c + 2 * d = M.

    Into each batch of Chocolate go 3 eggs and 1 cup of milk. Let h eggs and k cups of milk are added to make mint ice cream.

    ∴ 3 * h + 1 * k = C = V + M.

    In order to use all of the stock of 100 eggs and 60 cups of milk,

    a + c + h = 100.

    b + d + k = 60.
