Question

Corina and Angelica are selling cookies this summer. It costs $0.05 to make each cookie. They are going to sell each cookie for $0.25. What is the fewest number of cookies they need to sell in order to collect $5.00 more than the cost to make the cookies?

Please Help D:

Answer 1

25 cookies.

Explanation:

Start by subtracting .05 from .25, since you're looking for the profit. Now, that figures that each cookie will make 20 cents. 5.00/.20 is 25 cookies.
