Giving the following information:

He wants to earn more than $50 at the fair.

He sells his cards for $2 and he has already earned $36.

First, we need to calculate the money required to reach the minimum goal:

51 - 36= $15

2*x >15

x= number of cards sold.

x>15/2

x> 7.5

He must sell 8 cards to reach the minimum goal.

8 2/3 is the answer
