Lizzy: Avery puts 4 shirts in the donation box. He adds twice as many pants as shirts in the box. He throws in half as many shorts as pants in the box. In total, how many pieces of clothes is Avery donating?.

The total number of shirts in the donation box is 4. The total number of pants in the donation box is 4 x 2 = 8. The total number of shorts in the donation box is 8 / 2 = 4. The total number of clothes donated is 4 + 8 + 4 = 16 pieces. Final answer: 16.
