Someone ordered 430 shirts. They ordered twice as many red as white and 50 more blue than white. How many of each color did he order?

If white, is w, then you have the equation w+2w+w+50=530.

4w=480, so there are 120 white colored shirts.

There are 240 red colored shirts.

There are 170 blue colored shirts.

White 95, red 190 and blue 145.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let number of white shirts ordered be w

Then the number of red = 2w and number of blue = w + 50. Thus:-

w + 2w + w + 50 = 430

4w + 50 = 430

4w = 430 - 50 = 380

w = 380 / 4 = 95

So red = 190 and blue = 145
