Answer:

100 packets

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Cost = fixed cost + variable cost

Fixed cost = $500

Variable cost = $10

Sales price = $15

Let :

Number of packets = x

To break even :

fixed cost + variable cost = sales made

500 + 10x = 15x

500 = 15x - 10x

500 = 5x

x = 500 / 5

x = 100

100 packets
