654 over 3 = divide the both 654 and 3 by 3.
It will give you 218 over 1.
So the answer is 218.
Answer: Ruth have to make 7 hats to break even.
Step-by-step explanation:
Break even point is a point where Cost = Revenue.
Let x be the number of hats sold.
Given: Cost of booth = $63
Each hat cost = $10
Selling price for each cost = $19
As per given,
Total cost = Cost of booth+ (Cost of each hat)(Number of hats)
= 63+10x
Total selling price = 19x
For break even,
63+10x=19x
9x=63
x=7
Hence, Ruth have to make 7 hats to break even.
I believe you ment to say sale price but I hope this helps you understand your question. The original price was 1200, and if it were 5/6 on sale (this method works for all questions like this) you would do 1200 ÷ 6 = 200 x 5 = $1000.
