Answer 1

start by multiplying 3(15.50) which is the shirts times the cost
and then tell me what you get

Answer 2

well, as soon as you get that number, subtract it from $120 to find out the remaining money

Answer 3

it would be 46.5

Answer 4

yes, so now do 120-46.5

Answer 5

which gives you -73.5

Answer 6

Right, so he has $73.50 to spend on shoes. The shoes cost $32.50 each, so divide 73.50 by 32.50
