Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Let the number of polo shirts sold be x. Then the number of casual shirts sold is 4x. The equation for total sales is 9(4x) + 18(x) = 1080. Simplifying gives 36x + 18x = 1080, or 54x = 1080. Solving for x gives x = 20. Therefore, the number of casual shirts sold is 4x = 80.
