B. 15.1643 kilograms
C. 16.643 kilogram
D. 2.630 kilograms
From the question, we know a student either wears red , or blue, with the probability of a student wearing red is 3 times more probable than wearing white.
So, let’s say out of the 24 students, x of them are wearing white. What this practically mean is that 3 * x = 3x of the students would be expected to be wearing red.
Now, adding the number of people wearing red and white together in terms of x, we have x + 3x = 4x
We equate this to 24; 4x = 24 and x = 24/4; x = 6
The number wearing red probably is 3 * x = 3 * 6 = 18 people

You can discard the second and the fourth systems because they do not have the form established from the statement.
The first system produce an obvious result given that is represents an option that is always better than the other 5.5x will be lower than 7.5x + 10 for any positive value of x, and so there is no need to make any comparission.
The third system is
y = 7.5x and y = 5.5x + 10 which need to be solved to determine when one rate is more convenient than the other.
