Let x be the no. of watches,then
$$84+99x \le1150$$
solve for x,the maximum integral value in this constraint is the required value.

price for the total no.of shirts +  price for total no. of watches = the total amount of savings
price for the total no.of shirts +  price for total no. of watches = 1150
                      84  +   price for total no. of watches = 1150
                                   price for total no. of watches = 1150 - 84
                                                                             = 1066

now divide 1066 by the price of a watch to get the no. of watches...
                            1066/99 = 10 .7676
  so...
      the max. no .of watches Samantha can buy is 10
