The basketball team leads to raise money for new uniforms they have already raised 120 and are selling candy bars for 1.50 a piece. how many candy bars will they need to sell to raise at least $400

We need to find how many candy bars they need to sell to make at least $400

We know that they already raised $120.

We also know each candy cost $1.50 a piece.

We know that they need to make $400.

Represent this as an equation:

400 = 1.50x + 120

x = amount of candy bars

Solve the equation to get how many candy bars they need to sell:

400 = 1.50x + 120

Subtract 120 from both sides

280 = 1.50x

Divide both sides by 1.50

186.66 = x

Round to the nearest whole

187 = x

They would need to sell at least 187 candy bars
