Dan the Donut man has to buy the donut machine for 89 dollars. He then can make donuts and sell them for 2 dollars a person. How many donuts does he need to sell to make at least $231?

161 donuts

Step-by-step explanation:

(231+89)/2 then add one more donut as the question asked for at least $231

320/2 = 160 + one more donut = 161 donuts have to sold to make at least $231.

You have add the machine price as he wouldn't be making a profit off it if he didn't surpass what he spent for it.

Check your work by doing 161 times 2 minus 89 minus the 1 donut added and you'll get the $231. Not subtracting the one shows the profit of a dollar aka at least $231
