The Spanish Club at Santa Fe Middle School wants to sell mini quiches to raise money for a field trip. The culinary department at their school will make the quiches for $30 plus $ 0.50 per quiche for the ingredientsThe Spanish Club wants to sell each quiche for $2. How many quiches will they need to sell in order to break even? (1 point)

Answer 1

To break even, the Spanish Club needs to make enough money to cover the cost of making the quiches.

Cost of making one quiche = $30 + $0.50 = $30.50
Selling price of one quiche = $2

To break even, the Spanish Club needs to sell:
$30.50 / $2 = 15.25

Since the Spanish Club cannot sell a fraction of a quiche, they will need to sell at least 16 quiches in order to break even.
