Asked by Kelley

a Midwestern music competition awarded 28 ribbons. The number of blue ribbons awarded was 1 less then the number of white ribbons. The number of red ribbons was 2 more then the number of white ribbons. How many of each kind of ribbons was awarded?
Answered by PsyDAG
w - 1 = b

r = w + 2

r + w + b = 28

(w+2)+ w + (w-1) = 28

Solve for w, then r and b.
