The cost to make one quiche is $30 (fixed cost) plus $0.50 (variable cost for ingredients), which totals $30 + $0.50 = $<<30+0.50=30.50>>30.50 per quiche.
The selling price for one quiche is $2.
To break even, the Spanish club needs to sell enough quiches to cover the cost of making them, so they need to sell $30.50 worth of quiches.
To find out how many quiches they need to sell, we divide the total cost of the quiches ($30.50) by the price of one quiche ($2).
$30.50 / $2 = 15.25
Therefore, the Spanish club needs to sell approximately 15.25 quiches to break even.
The closest whole number to 15.25 is 15.
Therefore, the Spanish club needs to sell 15 quiches to break even.
Answer: Therefor C. 15 quiches.

I apologize for the mistake. Let's calculate the correct answer.
The cost to make one quiche is $30 (fixed cost) plus $0.50 (variable cost for ingredients), which totals $30 + $0.50 = $30.50 per quiche.
The selling price for one quiche is $2.
To break even, the Spanish club needs to sell enough quiches to cover the cost of making them, so they need to sell $30.50 worth of quiches.
To find out how many quiches they need to sell, we divide the total cost of the quiches ($30.50) by the price of one quiche ($2).
$30.50 / $2 = 15.25
Therefore, the Spanish club needs to sell approximately 15.25 quiches to break even.
Since we can't sell a fraction of a quiche, we round up to the nearest whole number. Therefore, they need to sell 16 quiches to break even.
