Answer 1

Answer:

274 long sleeved shirts

Step-by-step explanation:

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

The amount of long sleeved shirt left after donation is calculated as:

1089 long sleeved shirts - 266 long sleeved shirts

= 823 long sleeved shirts left.

The rest are split up to be shipped to 3 stores. What fraction represents how many long-sleeve shirts each store will receive?

The amount of long sleeved shirts each store would receive is calculated as:

823 long sleeved shirts /3 stores

= 274 2/3 long sleeved shirts

A shirt is a whole number 1 and can't be in Fraction.

Therefore, each store would receive 274 long sleeved shirts
