Carissa · Answer 1

We know that a women spent less than $200 on shirts.

We also know that the shirt were labeled $15 each, which means the price od each shirt is $15.

In order to find the number of shirts the women bought (denoted with X) we should divide the total amount of cash spent with the numbers of shirt she has bought.

X = $200 / $15

X = $ 13.33

Because it is not logical to buy 0.33 shirt (it must be whole), we can conclude that the women bought 13 shirts.
