To make each drink, Askeem pays a $2 * 1 drink = $<<2*1=2>>2.
Considering that Askeem has to pay $2 * drinks for all the drinks + $40 for the stand = $40 + $2 * drinks, to break even.
Therefore, Askeem needs to sell $40 + $2 * drinks = $6 * drinks to break even.
Combining like terms, we find $40 + $2d = $6d.
Subtracting $2d from both sides of the equation, we get $40 = $4d.
Finally, simplifying the equation by dividing both sides by $4, we see that d = .$40 / $4
