We must make an assumption here.

Explanation:

I will assume that the next line of the problem reads, "How many units of the product will the company need to sell in order to break even?"

Revenue = #1.20x#, where x is in units.
Cost = #0.65x + 10,000#, where x is in units.
The break-even point occurs where Revenue equals Cost.

#1.20x = 0.65x + 10000#
#0.55x = 10000#.
Now simply divide by 0.55 and advance to the next whole number ("round all fractions up").
