Suppose you invest $10,410 in equipment to manufacture a new board game. Each game costs $2.65 to manufacture and sells for $20. How many games must you make and sell before your business breaks even?

10410 = 20p - 2.65p
10410 = 17.25p
17.25 17.25
603.47826 = p?

Hi amber,

You did everything right except for subtracting 20p - 2.65p.
