students at hammond middle school are raising money for the end of the year school party. they decide to sell roses for valentines day. they also need $60 to buy ribbon and paper to protect the roses as well as materials for advertising the sale. they sell each rose for $1.30

a. how many roses must they sell to break even
b. what is the students profit if they sell 50 roses? 100 roses? 200 roses?

Sagot :

60÷1.30 = 46.15 ≈ 47
They would need to sell 47 roses to break even.
50×1.30 = 65 = $5 profit.
100×1.30 = 130 = $70 profit
200×1.30 = 260 = $200 profit
