3) Liz needs to have at least $500 to go to cheer camp. She is selling candy bars for a profit of $2 each. If
she already has $150, how many candy bars does she have to sell to have enough money to go to camp?

She needs $500, and since she already has $150, she needs 500 - 150 = $350 more.

If she profits $2 each candy bar, and she needs $350, she will need to sell at least 350 : 2 = 175 candy bars to have enough money to go tot eh camp.
