Okay, we know that the expenses for the day is 210.

Knowing this, and the price of the taco, we write the inequality:

3.25t > 210

t = number of tacos

Now divide both sides by 3.25:

t > 64.62 (rounded)

Because a taco stand can't sell a fraction of a taco, we know that the taco stand has to sell more than 65 tacos for a profit.
