We have the next information

the selling cost is $0.75 per cup

They spend $15.62 on all the ingredients

each cup cost $0.04

The profit for each cup will be


0.74-0.04=0.071

In order to break even


x(0.71)=15.62
x=(15.62)/(0.71)=22

In order to break even, they must sell 22 cups

In order to begin making a profit, they must sell 23 cups
