Question

Nora started a business making bracelets. She spent $75.00 on advertising and $35.00 on supplies. She sells each bracelet for $1.50. What is the least number of bracelets Nora needs to sell to make money than she spent? Show your work.

Answer 1

$75 ads + $35 supplies = $110.

110 / 1.50 = 74.

Why did I divide? we take the money she spent and divide by the cost of a bracelet to figure out how many she needs to sell to get $110.

74 bracelets need to be sold.
