Answer:

84%

Step-by-step explanation:

The percentage of pink shirts

= 9/200 × 100%

= 9/2

= 4.5%

The percentage of orange shirts

= 69/600 × 100%

= 69/6

= 11.5%

The percentage of the shirts which are not pink or orange

= 1 - 4.5% - 11.5%

= 84%

Alternative

Find their common denominator.

9/200

= 9×3 / 200×3

= 27/600

The total percentage of shirts in pink and orange

= (27/600 + 69/600) × 100%

= 96/600 × 100%

= 16%

The percentage of the shirts which are not pink or orange

= 1 - 16%

= 84%
