Answer:

938

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Amount spent by fair on thrill. Ride = $3000

Cost per token of thrill ride = $4

For the fair to make a profit of atleast $750

Then it must realize : (cost of thrill ride + $750) = ($3000 + $750) = $3750

Therefore ;

Cost per token * number of rise tokens ≥ $3750

Let number of ride tokens = x

4x ≥ 3750

4x/4 ≥ 3750/4

x ≥ 937.5

Hence, number of tokens that must be sold = 938
