Answer:

Total profit = $106

Profit made from hats = $34

Therefore to find the number of t-shirts sold

Total profit - Profit from hats = Profit from shirts

$106 - $34 = $72

And the made $4 from selling one shirt so to find the number of t-shirts sold,

*Profit of t-shirts - Profit made from one t-shirt = number of t-shirts

therefore, $72/$4= 18.

Therefore, Goran sold 18 t-shirts.
