The total cost to make each quiche is $30 + $0.50 = $30.50.
To break even, the Spanish Club needs to sell enough quiches to cover the cost of making them.
Let x be the number of quiches they need to sell to break even:
$30.50x = $2x
$28.50x = $30
x = 30 / 28.50
x = 60 quiches
Therefore, the Spanish Club needs to sell 60 quiches to break even.
Correct response: 45 quiches
