To answer this question you can write an equation that represents this situation.

I would subtract $11 (the cost per shirt) from the selling price to get $15 profit for each shirt. He paid $100 already and wants to profit $400, so the amount he needs to make is $500.

$15x = $500 would be the equation needed to answer this. x stands for the number of shirts.

Divide both sides by $15 to get
x = 33.33.... shirts.

He would need to sell at least 34 to make at least $400 profit.

Is 976 -522 more or less than 400? Explain how you can tell without actually subtracting.
liq [111]
You can round 976 to 1000 and 522 to 500. So it would be
1000 - 500 = 500. The answer you would get after subtracting 976-522 would be more than 400 if you round it.
