I thin you meant breaking point, but I will polish both sides. Right, stress =Force/area. Without calculation, you can analyse the stress-strain graph and as for rubber, it is a plastic material, meaning breaking point is right after the hooke's law graph (straight line from origin) continues a little bit. From there it breaks.
