And show your work ! marcus sells homemade pies for $10.50 a pie. it costs $1.25 for the ingredients to bake each pie. marcus bought a new oven for $800. how many pies must marcus sell in order to begin making a profit?

$10.50 - $1.25 = 9.25

$800 / $ 9.25 = 86.5

In order to begin making a profit, Marcus needs to sell 87 pies.

The answer is 270 cars.you can do this by making a proportional relationship. for instance, 200 is the whole we are using, so on a “number line” 200 would be over 100%. now, since he sells 35% more, add 35% to 100% to get 135% on the other side of the “number line” on the bottom half, leaving the top half empty.cross multiply 200 by 135 then divide by 100 to get your answer. i hope this , if it did, , if you don’t mind, giving me brainiest! 200/100% } 200 • 135 /100 ? /135%
