The shirt costs twice as much as the shoes. Together, they cost more than $200. What is the minimum cost for each item? (Round to he nearest dollar)

Shoes = x
Shirt = 2x

x+2x=$200
3x=$200
x=66.666666 so rounded x=$67
So then 2x is 2 x $67 = $134
Combined $67+$134=$201

$200 because you can't round toe the nearest dollar
