12

Step-by-step explanation:

With just the 84.00 of art supplies to break even he would need to sell 10.5 paintings so he will need 11 canvases. So he has spent 95.00 on it all. 95/8=11.875, which rounds up to 12 paintings. 12.00 for canvases plus 84.00 for art supplies is 96.00 spent. Divided by 12 is 0 so that is where he would break even
