Answer / bigdummy
Given:
S = M/3
L = S/2
XL = L
Change given expressions in terms of M:
S = M/3
L = S/2 = (M/3)/2 = M/6
XL = L = M/6
Total = S + M + L + XL
so
Total = (M/3) + M + (M/6) + (M/6)
6*Total = 2M + 6M + M + M = 10M
M = (6*Total)/10 = .6 (or 60%)

1/3 C = D;
1/2 D = B;
B=A;
% of med shirts= B/(A+B+C+D)*100= B/(B + B + 6B+ 2B)*100=
B/10B*100= 10%.
