    Step-by-step explanation:

    Total Number of Bicycles=300

    Number of Blue (B) = 175

    Number of Large (L) = 140

    Number of Small Red (S) = 90

    Total Bicycles = Large + Small

    300 = 140 + Small

    Small bicycles = 300-140=160

    Since Number of Small Red (S) = 90

    Number of Small Blue = 160-90=70

    Total Number of Blue Bicycles=175

    Small Blue Bicycles + Large Blue Bicycles=175

    70 + Large Blue Bicycles=175

    Large Blue Bicycles = 175-70=105

    There are 105 large blue Bicycles.
