Explanation:

so, he will not wear any pants ? socks ? not to mention underwear ?

anyway, we have to deduct the $35 for the shoes, as he is seemingly buying them in any case.

so, we are left with 100 - 35 = $65 for shirts.

as one shirt costs $15, we need to see how often 15 fits into 65, as that is the answer how many shirts he can buy for this money.

65 / 15 = 4.333333333...

since he cannot buy a part shirt, we can only rely on the integer part of the calculation.

so, he can buy 4 shirts and will have $5 left.
