Answer: 44 shirts were a size medium

To find this answer...
We know that 80 T shirts are equal to 100% of the the T shirts

To find 55% of 80, we could cross multiply

80 ?
------ -----
100% 55%

1. We multiple 80 by 55 to get 4,400
2. We divide 4,400 by 100 to get 44
3. 44 is 55% of 80


Hope this helps!
