Answer: $37 per shirt

Explanation:

First, we will find how much was spent on shirts. We will subtract the money spent on the suit by the total money spent.

$398 - $250 = $148

Next, we will divide the amount spent on shirts by the amount of shirts he bought. This will give us the money per shirt.

$148 / 4 shirts = $37 per shirt
