Question

Sixteen students in a drama club want to attend a play. The ticket price is $35 for each student, and the transportation and meals for everyone will cost$960. To pay for the trip, the students design sweatshirts to sell for profit of $19per sweatshirt. If each student sells the same number of sweatshirts, how many sweatshirts must each student sell so that there will be enough money to pay for the entire cost of the trip?

Answer 1

4

Explanation:

I rounded up the whole number as if each student sells only 3 sweatshirts, it is too little to pay for the whole trip, therefore the number must be 4. Hope that helps!
