Akeem needs to calculate the total costs to break even. The cost per cup of lemonade is $2 and the renter's fee for the stand is $40. So the total cost is $2 + $40 = $42.
To break even, Akeem needs to earn back the $42 in costs. Each cup of lemonade is sold for $6. Therefore, the number of cups Akeem needs to sell is $42 / $6 = <<42/6=7>>7 cups.
So, Akeem needs to sell 7 cups of lemonade to break even.
