IXL- 8th grade math- W.14 Screen-printing a batch of shirts requires 1 minute per shirt in addition to 4 minutes of initial set-up time. If it takes 41 minutes to screen-print a bath of shirts, how many shirts are in the batch?

Answer with the amount of shirts.

There are 37 shirts in the batch.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it takes an initial 4 minutes to set up the screen-printer, we can subtract 4 from 41 minutes to get the time used to print the shirts.

41 - 4 = 37

Since each shirt requires 1 minute of screen printing and there are 37 minutes, we can divide 37 by 1.

37 / 1 = 37

So there are 37 shirts in this batch. Hope this helps.
