Hard to tell profit if we don't know what price he sells them for.
To determine the number of candy bars Kenny needs to sell in order to make a profit of exactly $10, we need to use some simple calculations.
Given that Kenny buys 9 candy bars for $1, we can calculate the cost of each candy bar: $1/9 = $0.11 (rounded to the nearest cent).
Next, let's calculate the revenue Kenny would generate from selling each candy bar: $0.11 * 1 candy bar = $0.11.
To calculate his profit per candy bar, we subtract the cost per candy bar from the revenue per candy bar: $0.11 - $0.11 = $0 (no profit).
Now, let's calculate the number of candy bars Kenny would need to sell to make a profit of exactly $10.
Profit per candy bar * Number of candy bars = $10.
$0 * Number of candy bars = $10.
Number of candy bars = $10/$0 = undefined.
Since the number of candy bars is undefined, we need to increase the profit per candy bar. Let's try selling the candy bars at a higher price, such as $0.12 per candy bar.
Now, let's recalculate the profit per candy bar: $0.12 - $0.11 = $0.01.
Using the new profit per candy bar, let's calculate the number of candy bars Kenny would need to sell to make a profit of exactly $10.
Profit per candy bar * Number of candy bars = $10.
$0.01 * Number of candy bars = $10.
Number of candy bars = $10/$0.01 = 1000.
Therefore, Kenny would need to sell 1000 candy bars in order to make a profit of exactly $10.
None of the answer options (F-27, G-30, H-45, J-60, K-90) match the correct answer.
