Answer / sundar

let no. of small shirts = a
let no. of medium shirts = b
let no. of large shirts = c
let no. of x-large shirts = d

b = a/3
a = c/2
d = c


a=c/2
b=c/6
d=c


total no of shirts = a+b+c+d = c/2+c/6+c+c = 8c/3


%medium =(c/6)/(8c/3)*100 = 25%

let no. of small shirts = a
let no. of medium shirts = b
let no. of large shirts = c
let no. of x-large shirts = d

b = a/3
a = c/2
d = a+b+c

a = c/2
b = c/6
d = c/2 + c/6 +c
= 5c/3
total shirts = 5c/6 + c/2 + c/6 + c = 10c/3
%c = (c/(10c/3))*100 = 30% ans
