The standard raise is 3 or 4 big blids (Between $1.50 and $2) plus one big blind ($.50) for every limper.

Without reads, a min-raise is pretty much a limp. So making it $2-$3 is fine.

Fold equity has to do with getting worse hands to fold to your raise, which doesn't have much to do with your example.

I want to calculate how often my raise needs to succeed to be immediately profitable. Sry if I didn't put it well.

Money in pot/ raise size to see how often your raise has to produce folds for it to be profitable.
4.75/3*100 = 63%, so you need to get villain to fold 2/3 of the time for it to be profitable steal
