    The sign states:

    1) Copies cost 10 cents each

    2) Copy machines only take quarters

    3) Copy machines do not make change. If you make 1 copy, you don't get 15 cents back.

    The least number of copies Al can make without losing money is 5.

    5 x 10 cents = 50 cents

    50 / 0.25 = 2

    Al can insert two quarters in the copy machine and have 5 copies. He can have an interval of 5 copies to get his money's worth.
