a. The shirt at Store "A".
b. The shirt at Store "B".

Answer 1

A. The shirt at Store "A".

Explanation:

How to find 10% of 28.

First, we need to convert 10% into a decimal.

To do that, we just divide the number by 100.

`(10)/(100)`
`= 0.1`

Now, we take the original number (28) and multiply it by the decimal

`28 x 0.1 = 2.8`

Finally, we subtract.

`28.00 - 2.80 = 25.20`

`25.20` >
`25.00`

Therefore, Store "A" Has the cheapest shirt
