Answer:

Each t-shirt  cost 13 dollars.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the jacket was 20 bucks, we can set that aside:

85-20=65

Now that we've set that aside, there are five t-shirts. If they all cost the same, that means we can divide!

65/5=13

How to check?

Use inverse operations: 13*5=65

Re-add the 20 bucks from the jacket, and the bill is complete again! Use inverse operations: 13*5=65

Each shirt costs $13.
