    Answer: 35 t shirts

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let number of t shirts be x

    Let profit made be y

    On main street, the store costs $650,

    Selling the t shirt at $32 per 1

    He would make a revenue of 32x

    Profit = revenue - cost accrued

    y1 = 32x - 650

    On Broad street, the store costs $440,

    Selling the t shirt at $26 per 1

    He would make a revenue of 26x

    Profit = revenue - cost accrued

    y2 = 26x - 440

    To make same profit on either location

    y1 = y2

    32x - 650 = 26x - 440

    32x - 26x = - 440+650

    6x = 210

    x = 210/6

    = 35 t shirts
