Using proportions, it is found that she must sell each necklace for at least $5.80 in order to make a profit of at least $250.

What is a proportion?

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount

In this problem, it costs her $40 to make 50 necklaces. She wants a profit of at least $250, hence the 50 necklaces should sell for at least $250 + $40 = $290.

Hence, the minimum price for each one is given by:

$290/50 = $5.80.

She must sell each necklace for at least $5.80 in order to make a profit of at least $250.
