    Initial cash on hand : $200.00

    Ticket cost : $87.96

    T-shirt cost per piece: $30.00

    The first thing Staci needs to do is to deduct the cost of the ticket from her money.

    $200 - 87.96 = $112.04

    Stacy has the extra amount of 112.04 to purchase t-shirts. Since, each t-shirt costs $30. To know the number of shirts she can buy, she must divide the difference by 30.

    $112.04 / $30 = 3.73

    Based from the quotient, Stacy can buy 3 t-shirts.

    $30 * 3 = $90 total cost of the tshirts.

    $112.04 - 90 = $22.04

    After buying the ticket and 3 tshirts, Staci has an excess of $22.04 from her $200.
