The meaning is "how many pairs of shoes do you have" because 双 is a measure word for pair.

So if I have four shoes is the abswer to the Chinese question 2 (pairs) or 4 (shoes)? Because the answer to the given English translation is definitely 4.

literal translation 'How many pairs of shoes do you have? ' Inconsistency is a real problem.
