Question

You are going to sell lemonade this summer. You paid a total of $10 for lemons and sugar. You spent $0.10 on each cup. You plan to charge $0.50 for each cup sold. How many cups must you sell to break even?

Answer 1

10.10 thats the cost of what you spent to overcome this you will need to sell at least 11 cups of lemonade

Answer 2

You would multiply $0.40 (subtract the ten cents per cup) by x to get $10. Since $0.40 x 25 = $10, you would need to sell 25 cups to break even
