6 and above. you need to find out how many ornaments he will need to sell in order to have paid the cost of supplies. then you add (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 and etc) so that he can make a profit

steps to show work: 8.50 times 6 =51which is higher than the cost of materials with some extra money which is considered profit
