The minimum number of bags they need to sell is 950.
Explanation:
To make a profit of at least or no less than $5,225 you must divide the desired profit by the profit per bag and round up.
Bags To Sell = $5,225 / $5.50 = 950.0
No rounding is required so the minimum number of bags they need to sell is 950.
