We have

(a) The total fraction of shirts that Diana sold on Monday and Tuesday is given by

Fmt = 1/5 +3/12

= 12+15 /60

=27/60

(b) The difference in the fraction of the total number of green shirts that were sold on Tuesday and Wednesday is given by

Ftw =3/12 -2/15

=15-8 /60

= 7/60

Thus, the required answers are

27/60

and
