Blue shirts = 6. Orange shirts = 4. White shirts = 2. Total shirts = 12 + 6 + 4 + 2 = 24 When it is mentioned that for every two shirts, one of them is red, it is mentioned that the total of red shirts corresponds to 50%, which can be verified with a rule of three: 24 shirts = 1 12 red shirts = X X = (12 * 1) / 24 X = 0.5 = 50% Therefore the t-shirts referred to, in effect are the red ones.
