$420 is the cost of materials to make all the dolls
\n" ); document.write( "$5 is the cost in labor to make one doll
\n" ); document.write( "Let x = number of dolls made to break even (cost of production = income)
\n" ); document.write( "5 * x = labor cost to make all the dolls
\n" ); document.write( "(materials cost) + (labor cost) / number of dolls = price per doll
\n" ); document.write( "\"%28240+%2B+%285+%2A+x%29%29+%2F+x+=+12\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"%28240+%2B+%285+%2A+x%29%29+=+12+%2A+x\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"7+%2A+x+=+420\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x+=+60\"
\n" ); document.write( "check
\n" ); document.write( "\"%28420+%2B+%285+%2A+60%29%29+%2F+60+=+12\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+%28420+%2B+300%29+%2F+60+=+12\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+720+%2F+60+=+12\"
\n" ); document.write( "checks OK
\n" ); document.write( "make 60 dolls to break even
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
