Answer 1

A) 1 T-shirt for every 5 people

Explanation:

A is the best answer because it has the correct rate of 1 shirt for every 5 people, and it is easy to understand. D is also a plausible answer because it would be correct to say there are 5 people attending the concert for every shirt sold at the concert. However, A is worded better than D.

Answer 2

The answer would be 5 T-shirts for each person
