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 / 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%

Is This Answer Correct ?    1 Yes 2 No
