The total of s'mores that you could make before you ran out of ingredients is 15 smores.

What are the elements required to do a smore and how many smores can you make?

The basic ingredients to do one smore are:

  • One marshmallow
  • One piece of chocolate
  • 2 graham cracker squares

Now, let's calculate the number of smores you could make depending on the ingredient:

  • Graham cracker squares: 25 smores (50/2 = 25)
  • Marshmallows: 15 smores
  • Chocolate pieces: 100 smores

Despite this, as there are only 15 marshmallows this would act as the limiting ingredient, which means only 15 smores can be made.
