Answer: 3.11637
Explanation: The hundred thousandths place is in the fifth place after the decimal. To avoid remembering this, you can simply note that the first place after the decimal is the tenths. You simply keep progressing as you would in whole numbers.
For example 10 becomes 100 when a zero is added. This zero is always added right beside the first zero and indicates the hundreds place.
Furthermore, the general rule for rounding is if the number after the preferred rounding place is 4 or less, the number remains the same. 5 or more means it goes up by one digit.
Answer:
6,000 toothpicks
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we are trying to evaluate the number of toothpicks a company must sell to ensure that the money spent on production is exactly equal to revenue from sales.
What we do is this!
Let’s assign a variable to represent the number of tooth picks sold and produced by the company. Let us call this number x.
First, we evaluate the total amount spent on production of x toothpicks. From the question, we can see that the cost of producing a single toothpick is $0.01, hence, to produce x toothpicks, amount spent asides the fixed cost is $0.01 * x = $0.01x
Now, the total cost on production which includes the fixed cost of the company would be $(0.01x + 60). This is the total amount spent to produce the goods.
Now revenue from sales for x toothpicks at $0.02 each is $0.02x
Since we are looking to Breakeven, we equate the costs to the revenue.
0.01x + 60 = 0.02x
0.02x-0.01x = 60
0.01x = 60
x = 60/0.01 = 6,000 toothpicks
