put them in order from the smallest to the largest: 110, 125, 138 , 144, 152,153,162, 163,164, 174, 174, 175, 177,180,183,185, 186,187, 194,195, 196,198
To get how many customers Sam has, write an equation that will relate to the gross profit. Let n be the customers. Since for 52 weeks, Sam charges $25 per week per person, multiply n by the number of weeks and the charge. The equation is written as $88,400 = 52 weeks x $25 per week x n persons. Divide $88,400 by the product of 52 weeks and the $25 charge. The answer will be 68. The annual operating expense $48,000 is just there to make confusion.
