Elisa needs 40 shirts for a charity. One store is selling shirts for $6.95 each. Another store says that the total for al 40 shirts will be $325 with a 20% discount. Which store should Elisa buy shirts from? Shirts for $6.95 or $325 for all with a 20% off?

Well, let us figure out what the first store will cost.
40*6.95=278
Now for the second store
325*0.8=260

So the first store is $278, while the second store is $260, so Elisa should buy shirts from the second store
