Answer 1

274 1/3 long sleeve shirts

Explanation:

Deal Finder is sorting its production supply of long-sleeve shirts. They have 1,089 long-sleeve shirts. The first 266 are donated

Hence,

1089 - 266

= 823 long sleeve shirts are left

The rest are split up to be shipped to 3 stores.

This is calculated as:

= 823 long sleeve shirts /3 stores

= 274 1/3 shirts

What fraction represents how many long-sleeve shirts each store will receive?

Each store will receive : 274 1/3 long sleeve shirts
