Answer:

I believe your answer is 116.75

Explanation:

all you have to do is divide the amount of fabric he uses for one shirt and the amount of fabric he got which is

27.5 divided by 2.5 = 11

then multiply how much shirts he has with how much he is selling them for

11 times 12.5 =137.5

then subtract the original cost of the fabric so

137.5 - 20.75= 116.75

sorry if i explained it a little messy please let me know if you got the question right!!
