To break even, the Spanish club needs to make enough money to cover the cost of making the quiches. The cost of making each quiche is $30 + $0.50 = $<<30+0.5=30.50>>30.50.
Dividing the cost of making the quiches by the selling price of each quiche will give the number of quiches needed to break even.
$30.50 / $2 = 15.25
So the Spanish club will need to sell at least 15.25 quiches to break even.
Since they cannot sell a fraction of a quiche, they will need to sell at least 16 quiches.
Therefore, the correct answer is not listed.
