The correct answer is: 26

$o b v i o u s l y t o t a l space s h i r t space minus space s o l d space s h i r t space equals space l e f t space s h i r t space s o comma space 42 space minus s o l d space s h i r t space equals space 16 s o l d space s h i r t space equals 42 space minus space 16 s o l d space s h i r t space equals 26 space i s space t h e space a n s w e r$
