Question 1023802: Erin is taking part in a play at the community theater. The cast and crew ordered T-shirts for all the volunteers. The cost of a T-shirt is $8, and the total delivery charge is $45 per order. If the center has no more than $325 to buy T-shirts, how many T-shirts can they buy?

Subtract the fixed delivery charge from the amount you have to spend since it is $45 no matter how many you order. $325 - $45 = $280
Divide the remaining amount by the cost per shirt. @280 / $8 = 35 shirts.
