A shoe store costs 1800 dollars a
month to operate. The average
wholesale cost of each pair of
shoes is 25 dollars, and the
average price of each pair of shoes
is 65 dollars. How many pairs of
shoes must the store sell each
month to break even? (please answer this fast)

Answer 1

Below

Explanation:

The profit from each pair of shoes is $ 65 - 25 = 40 dollars per pair

This profit from 'x' pairs has to equal $ 1800 for break even point .

40 x = 1800

x = $ 1800 / $ 40 /pair = 45 pairs
