A school purchase boxes of candy bars
Each box contains 50 candy bars
Each box cost $30
How much does the school have to charge for,each candy bar to make a profit $10 per box

Sagot :

ok so, we need a profit of $10 per box, so we can assume the boxes are (fake) valued as $40 (per box)

since each box has 50 bars, we set up a simple proportion 

[tex](1 Bar) / ($ money) = (50 Bars)/ ($40)[/tex]

50($ money) = 40
$ = 40/50
$= .8

the school will have to sell the bars for $0.80

Ill say thats a GREAT deal :3
