Answer:

-10 watches

Explanation:

Given that she has a $1150savings, the shirts cost a total of $84 and the watches cost $99 each. let y be the number of watches she buys:


99y+84=1150\\\\99y=1150-84\\\\99y=1066\\\\y=10.77

Given watches cannot be sold in pieces, the maximum number of watches she can buy is 10
