Question 1049510: A hairdresser is deciding where to open her own studio. If the hairdresser chooses Location A, she will pay $1200 per month in rent and will charge $45 per haircut. If she chooses Location B, she will pay $1800 per month in rent and will charge $60 per haircut. How many haircuts would she have to give in one month to make the same profit at either location?

Let n be the amount of haircuts given at each location. In order to equalize the profits at both locations, we have:
45n-1200=60n-1800
15n=600
n=40
Our hairdresser has to give 40 haircuts at each location to equalize her profits. ☺☺☺☺
