What is the correct interpretation of "No person who buys the red shirt does not buy the blue shirt"?

  1. Everyone who buys the red shirt buys the blue shirt

  2. No one buys the red shirt

  3. Some people buy the red shirt and the blue shirt

  4. Only a few buy the blue shirt

The correct answer is: Everyone who buys the red shirt buys the blue shirt

This statement can be interpreted as a double negative, where "not does not" becomes "does". So the correct interpretation of this statement is that everyone who buys the red shirt also buys the blue shirt. The other options are incorrect because they do not accurately reflect the double negative. Option B is incorrect because it only mentions one shirt being bought (the red one). Option C is incorrect because it does not state that everyone who buys the red shirt also buys the blue shirt. Option D is incorrect because it limits the number of people who buy the blue shirt, instead of stating that all people who buy the red shirt buy the blue shirt.
