In a box, there are jelly beans of 3 colours, white, pink and green. There are 96 more pink jelly beans than green jelly beans. The number of green jelly beans is ²₃ more than the white jelly beans. Given that the number of green jelly beans is 20% of the total number of jelly beans in the box, how many more pink jelly beans are there than white jelly beans?

White jelly beans	Pink jelly beans	Green jelly beans
	1 u + 96	1 u
3x4		5x4
80%		20%
12%	68%	20%

1 + ²₃ = ³₃ + ²₃ = ⁵₃

Yellow jelly beans : Purple jelly beans = 3 : 5

The number of green jelly beans is repeated.  Make the number of green jelly beans the same.

5 x 4 = 20%

Total number of white jelly beans and pink jelly beans in percent
= 100% - 20%
= 80%

Number of pink jelly beans in percent
= 80% - 12%
= 68%

Number of more pink jelly beans than green jelly beans in percent
= 68% - 12%
= 48%

48% = 96

1% = 96 ÷ 48 = 2

Number of more pink jelly beans than white jelly beans
= 68% - 12%
= 56%
= 56 x 2
= 112

Answer(s): 112
