. He bought one shirt for $26
and he bought 3 pairs of socks. Each pair of socks cost the same amount of money.

to represent the cost of each pair of socks.
Type your equation:
The cost of one shirt and three pairs of socks should add up to the total amount spent at the mall.
The equation can be written as:
26 + 3x = 47
where x represents the cost of each pair of socks.
