Answer:

The  The number of sweatshirts the company would need to sell to earn a target profit of $1,710 is closest to 570 sweatshirts.

Explanation:

Total cost price per unit = Average unit cost + Sales commission per unit = $7 + $5 = $12

Profit per unit = Selling price per unit - Total cost price per unit = $15 - $12 = $3
