Hello! First off, Staci is buying a ticket for herself, which costs $87.96. She has $200 with her. 200 - 87.96 is 112.04. Now, the t-shirts cost $30 each. We can divide the amount she has left by 3 to get the number of shirts she ca=an buy. 112.04/30 is 3.73466666, but you can't have part of a shirt. Therefore, the maximum amount of t-shirts Staci can purchase is 3.
