Answer:
$875
Explanation:
In this problem, we know that the cost of 1 sandwich is
[tex]c=\$3.50[/tex]
If we have a total of N sandwiches, then the total cost to produce them can be found by using the rule of three:
[tex]\frac{1}{c}=\frac{N}{C}[/tex]
where C is the total cost to make N sandwiches.
By re-arranging the formula, we find:
[tex]C=Nc[/tex]
where in this problem, the number of sandwiches is
N = 250
And therefore, the total cost here is:
[tex]C=(250)(\$3.50)=\$875[/tex]
