    What you have to do is find what 1/3 is of 120 and 1/4 of 120.

    120/3=40, so each third is 40 bricks

    120/4=30, so each fourth is 30 bricks

    Add those together

    The total of the red bricks and blue bricks is 70

    120-70 = 50

    There would be: 40 red bricks, 30 blue bricks, and 50 green bricks

    So you need the fraction of green ones?

    = 1 - 1/3 - 1/4

    = 1 - 4/12 - 3 / 12

    = 12/12 - 4/12 - 3/12

    = 5/12

    and the numbers of each brich are 1/3 * 120 = 40 red

    1/4*120 = 30 blue and 5/12 * 120 = 50 green
