Question

A school purchases boxes of candy bars. Each box contains 50 candy bars. Each box costs $30. How much does the school have to charge for each candy bar to make a profit of $10 per box?

A $0.40
B $0.50
С $0.80
D $1.25​

Answer 1

C. Because If each individual box is $30 and there is 50 in each, divide 30/50. Then you know how much they are profiting off that amount. Then calculate for $10 per box

Answer 2

C

Explanation:

30/50 = each bar costs 0.60 dollars

10/50 = 0.20 dollars

0.60 + 0.20 = 0.80
