Answer:

Devin will donate $67.5 to charity.

Explanation:

Given:

Devin made 30 custom t-shirts to sell.

He will donate 1/8 0f his total sales to a local charity.

He sold all 30 t-shirts for $18 each.

Now, to find the amount Devin donate to charity.

Total number of t-shirts = 30.

Each t-shirts sold at = $18.

So, total amount of 30 t-shirts sold:


30* 18


=\$540.

As, Devin will donate
(1)/(8) of his total sales to a local charity.

Now, to get the amount he will donate to charity:


(1)/(8) \ of\ \$540\\\\=(1)/(8) * 540\\\\=(540)/(8)\\\\=\$67.5.

Therefore, Devin will donate $67.5 to charity.
