The school store sells Midville High T-shirts for $25 each and Midville High gym shorts for $15 a pair. One afternoon they sold a total of 104 T-shirts and pairs of shorts for a total of $2,160. How many T-shirts did they sell and how many pairs of shorts did they sell?

60 t-shirts and 44 shorts

You can get this by setting up a system of equations:

x + y = 104
25x + 15y = 2160
