$              

Let's calculate the markup prices for each item:

### 1. **$22 shirt marked up 15%**:
- Markup amount = 15% of $22 = $ 22 \times \frac{15}{100} = 3.30 $
- Marked-up price = $22 + $3.30 = **$25.30**

### 2. **$18 hat marked up 20%**:
- Markup amount = 20% of $18 = $ 18 \times \frac{20}{100} = 3.60 $
- Marked-up price = $18 + $3.60 = **$21.60**

### 3. **$24 skirt marked up 5%**:
- Markup amount = 5% of $24 = $ 24 \times \frac{5}{100} = 1.20 $
- Marked-up price = $24 + $1.20 = **$25.20**

### 4b. Difference between marked-up price and original price of the shirt:
- Marked-up price of the shirt = **$25.30**
- Original price = **$22.00**
- Difference = $25.30 - $22 = **$3.30**
