The Spanish club at Santa Fe Middle School wants to sell mini quenches to raise money for a field trip to culinary department at their school will make the crunchies for $30 plus $.50 per Quincy for the ingredients. Spanish club wants to sell each Quincy for two dollars how many quenches will they need to sell in order to break even

1 answer

To break even, the Spanish club would need to cover the cost of making the quenches, which is $30 + $0.50 per quincy.

Let's say the cost of making one quincy is $30 + $0.50 = $30.50

The Spanish club wants to sell each quincy for $2.

To calculate the number of quenches they need to sell to break even, we can use the following formula:

Number of quenches to sell = Total cost / Selling price per quincy

Number of quenches to sell = $30.50 / $2 = 15.25

Since they cannot sell a fraction of a quincy, they would need to sell at least 16 quenches to break even.
