As you can see it says; "Has to pay the country 250 dollars each day" "plus 2 dollars per combo meal" and "The price of a combo is 7 dollars" So each day there is a (Fee) of (250 dollars) that has to be including (2 dollars) form each sale of a (Combo) meal.Each (Combo) meal costs (7 dollars). \[7-2=5\] Divide that by 250 \[250\div5=50\] So he needs to sell ( B. 50 ) combo meals each day to break even.
