B) 22%

C) 16%

D) 24%

E) 20%

Correct Answer:
E) 20%

Description for Correct answer:
The number of shirts (linen and cotton) sold by Store D

= \( 84000 \times \frac{12}{100} = 10080 \)

The number of linen shirts sold by Store B

= \( 10080 \times \frac{22}{100} \times \frac{5}{11} = 8400 \)

Required percentage

= \( \frac{10080-8400}{8400} \times 100=\frac{1680 \times 100}{8400}=20 \)%
