School Fundraisers—Answer all parts of the task.
Plan 1: Selling Candy Bars
The school is able to buy 6 boxes of candy bars for $136.80. Each box contains 24 candy bars. What is the cost per candy bar?
Each candy bar will be sold for $2.00. What is the minimum number of candy bars that musts be sold to meet the goal fo raising at least $1000 [Amount raised = earnings minus cost].
Explain or show your reasoning.
The goal is to have 150 students in the school sell candy bars for the fundraiser. On average, how many candy bars must be sold per student to meet the goal?
To meet the principals expectation, at what speed must the student walk? Make sure you indicate the units of measure.
The fundraiser will require the students to walk 6 complete laps. If a student meets the principal's expectation, how many hours will it take to walk 6 complete laps?
Each student will receive $2.75 per lap. If each student completes exactly 6 laps, what is the minimum number of students that will be needed to meet the goal of raising at least $1000?
