Question

Jennifer spent $150 at a craft fair to rent a booth. She sells knit blankets for $20 each. How many blankets does Jennifer need to sell to break down even?

Answer 1

Answer: She needs to sell 8 blankets to break down even.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze the information given:

• Money spent: $150
• Price per blanket: $20

So, to calculate the number of blankets that she needs to sell to break down even we have to divide the money spent by the price of each blanket.

Mathematically speaking:

150/20= 7.5 (rounded) = 8

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

Answer 2

Answer:

She would need to sell 8 blankets.

Step-by-step explanation:

20 x 8 = 160 and 20 x 7 = 140

Jennifer would need to sell 7.5 blankets to make 150 dollars but you can't sell half a blanket so the answer would be 8.
