The booster club at school is raising funds by selling t-shirts at each athletic event. They must pay the manufacturer $110 plus $5.50 for each T-shirt, which they sell for $8.00. How many T-shirts do they need to sell to break even?

Explanation:

Total money paid=$110+$5.5=115.5

Cost of each shirt=$8

Therefore,

No. of T shirt req.=115.5/8=14.4

So they req. 15 T-Shirts
