There are <math>46</math> students paired with a blue partner. The other <math>11</math> students wearing blue shirts must each be paired with a partner wearing a shirt of the opposite color. There are <math>64</math> students remaining. Therefore the requested number of pairs is <math>\tfrac{64}{2}=\boxed{\textbf{(B)} ~32}</math> ~Punxsutawney Phil
