In a certain department store, which has four sizes of a
specific shirt, there are 1/3 as many small shirts as medium
shirts, and 1/2 as many large shirts as small shirts. If
there are as many x-large shirts as large shirts, what
percent of the shirts in the store are medium?

Answer Posted / sid

no of small(S) shirts= D
no of med(M) shirts= C
no of lar(L) shirts= B
no of x-lar(XL) shirts= A;

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%.
