    Number of shorts = 40

    Number of t-shirt = 160

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let number of t-shirts = t

    Let number of shorts = s

    Price of each t-shirt = $5

    Total price of t-shirts = 5t

    Price of each shorts = $6

    Total price of shorts = 6s

    So,

    5t + 6s = 1,040 ... Eq1

    Given:

    Number of t-shirt = 4 (number of shorts)

    So, t = 4s ... Eq2

    From Eq1 and Eq2

    5t + 6s = 1,040

    5 (4s) + 6s = 1,040

    20s + 6s = 1,040

    26s = 1,040

    Number of shorts = 40

    Number of t-shirt = 4 (number of shorts)

    Number of t-shirt = 4 (40)

    Number of t-shirt = 160
