Question

Kyle's fencing team is selling calendars to raise money. They earn $0.40 On each calendar they sell. Their goal is to earn more than $327. Write and solve an inequality to find the least number of calendars they can sell and still reach their goal.

Answer 1

818

Explanation:

Amount earned per calendar = $0.40

Target amount = > $327

Least number of calendars they can sell ;

(Number of calendars * amount earned per calendar) > 327

Let number of calendars = x

0.40x > 327

x > 327/0.40

x > 817.5

Least Number of calendars they can sell is 818
