Question

Debbie had $100.00 to spend on shoes and shirts. She bought 1 pair of shoes for $53.84, including sales tax. Each shirt costs $8.19, including sales tax. What is the maximum number of shirts Debbie can purchase?

Answer 1

she can buy 5 shirts maximum

100-53.84=46.16 that is how much she has left to spend on shirts. 46.16÷8.19=5.63 but you can't have 0.63 shirts so in the end she can buy 5 shirts
