The P.T.O. decided to provide shirts for the elementary students for track and field day. Each grade was given a different color. 101 Kindergartners wore orange shirts that cost $5.80 each. 113 first graders wore yellow shirts that cost $5 each. 107 second graders wore blue shirts that cost $5.60 each. 108 third graders wore green shirts that cost $5.25 each. How much did the P.T.O. spend on shirts for field day?

The cost for 101 Kindergarten shirts x $5.80 = $585.80. The cost for 113 first grade shirts x $5 = $565. The cost for 107 second grade shirts x $5.60 = $599.20. The cost for 108 third grade shirts x $5.25 = $567. The total cost of the shirts was $585.80 + $565 + $599.20 + $567 = $2,317.
Thus, the answer is 2317.
