PLEASE SOLVE. Students are selling candy bars. They earn $0.50 for each one they sell. They want to earn at least $455. Write and solve an inequality to find the fewest candy bars they can sell and reach their goal.

so each candy bar is .50 and they want to reach 455.00

we see how many .50's can go into 455.00

we notice that .50 times 2=1
so if we multiply the 455  1's by 2 we get how many candy bars to sell or
910.00

Let's use C as a variable for the number of candy bars they sell.
0.50C=455

To get what C is you have to divide both sides of the equation by 0.50, or half.

Dividing by half is the same as multiplying by 2, so 455 times 2 is 910.

C=910.
