A company has a monthly expense of $5,000 for rent and utilities. The company earns an average profit of $20 per product sold. How many products must be sold each month to cover the rent and utility expenses?
To determine how many products need to be sold to cover the monthly expenses, we can divide the total expenses by the profit per product:

Products_needed = Monthly_expenses / Profit_per_product
                = $5,000 / $20
                = 250

So, the company needs to sell 250 products each month to cover their rent and utility expenses.
