Answer:

  544

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratios of cartons are ...

  B : P = 2 : 1

  S : L = 2 : 1

  L : B = 2 : 1

Combining these into a single set of ratios, we have ...

  S : L : B : P = 8 : 4 : 2 : 1

Then the proportion of the order that is strawberry is ...

  8/(8+4+2+1) = 8/15

and the number of strawberry cartons is ...

  (8/15)·1020 = 544

The store ordered 544 cartons of strawberry yogurt.
