    She can buy Three shirts.

    Explanation:

    Total money of staci = $200.00

    The ticket's cost = $87.96

    Price of one shirt = $30.00

    Shirts bought by staci = ?

    Solution:

    Money left after ticket purchase = $200 - $87.96

    = $112.04

    No. of shirts she can buy = $112.04/$30 = 3.73

    = Three shirts she can buy.

    The total amount that Staci had in hand is $200.00.

    The ticket at that time costs $87.96.

    One Tshirt costs, $30.00.

    Now that she has paid ticket, she will deduct the ticket from the cash she has in hand, so as to know the amount she is remaining with.

    Tha is, $200-$87.96 = $112.04.

    ∴ In hand Staci has $112.04 extra cash whereby she can purchase more t shirts.

    To get the number of tshirt she can buy, she will divide the amount she has in hand by the amount per piece of t shirt.

    For example, $112.04 / $30 = $3.73.

    ∴ Staci can only purchase threet shirts only at a total cost of $90 for all the t shirts which is $30 * 3 = $90.

    Staci has excess of 22.04 after deducting ticket and the other amount she has used to purchase the extra t shirts.

    That is, $112.04 - $90 = $22.04.
