A club can buy ready-made shirts for $14.50 each. Alternately, it can buy plain T-shirts for $6.25 each , fabric paint for $35.70,  and a pack of stencils for $8.50. For how many shirts is stenciling plain T-shirts cheaper than buying ready made shirts?

Let the number of shirts bought be x.         
14.5x > 6.25x+35.7+8.5
14.5x-6.25x > 35.7+8.5           
8.25x > 44.2                 
x > 5.35757575757...
Therefore, the least number of shirts bought is 6.
14.5x > 6.25x+35.7+8.5
14.5x-6.25x > 35.7+8.5           
8.25x > 44.2                  
x > 5.35757575757.
the least number of shirts bought is 6.
