I think it’s 5.63. You need to divide it. Since it said three times, you will divide it by 4
Solve for x, where x represents the cost of the cap:

x + 3x = $22.52

4x = $22.52

x = $22.52/4

x = $5.63

Test it. If a cap costs $5.63 and a shirt costs 3x that of the cap, the shirt costs $16.89.

The cost of a cap and a shirt is equal to $5.63 + $16.89 = $22.52
