Answer:

  6 shirts

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of a shirt and 2 ties is ...

  $18.50 +2(7.50) = $33.50

For $205, Frank can buy $205/$33.50 = 6.12 sets of shirt and ties.

Frank can buy 6 shirts (and 12 ties) for an amount less than $205.

_____

Additional comment

Frank's cost will be $201 for that purchase.
