Answer:

$24

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 25% is off the price of the shirt, she bought the shirt at 75% of it's cost price. This difference between the full cost and the 75% is what she saved (i.e. 25% was the savings)

So, if the shirt costs x dollars:

$6 = 25% of x

= ( 25/100)*X = 0.25X

X = $6/0.25 = $6x4

X = $24
