Answer: 55-3m


Explanation:

Given: Sarah received $55 dollar sign,for her birthday.

Therefore, the total money she had=$55

Since she used some of that money to buy 3 shirts priced at m dollars each.

Then the total amount she spent =3 times m=3m

Now, the amount of money she had left = 55-3m (in dollars)

Hence the required expression is 55-3m
