In a container, there are lollipops of 3 colours, gold, brown and blue. There are 20 more brown lollipops than blue lollipops. The number of blue lollipops is ¹₄ more than the gold lollipops. Given that the number of blue lollipops is 35% of the total number of lollipops in the container, how many more brown lollipops are there than gold lollipops?

Gold lollipops	Brown lollipops	Blue lollipops
	1 u + 20	1 u
4x7		5x7
65%		35%
28%	37%	35%

1 + ¹₄ = ⁴₄ + ¹₄ = ⁵₄

Yellow lollipops : Purple lollipops = 4 : 5

The number of blue lollipops is repeated.  Make the number of blue lollipops the same.

5 x 7 = 35%

Total number of gold lollipops and brown lollipops in percent
= 100% - 35%
= 65%

Number of brown lollipops in percent
= 65% - 28%
= 37%

Number of more brown lollipops than blue lollipops in percent
= 37% - 28%
= 2%

2% = 20

1% = 20 ÷ 2 = 10

Number of more brown lollipops than gold lollipops
= 37% - 28%
= 9%
= 9 x 10
= 90

Answer(s): 90
