let the number he had be x
x/3 + x/4 + x/3 + 22 = x
times 12
4x + 3x + 4x + 264 = 12x
264 = x
first class --- 264/3 = 88
2nd class --- 264/4 = 66
third class --- 88
fourth class --- 22
x/3 + x/4 + x/3 + 22 = x
times 12
4x + 3x + 4x + 264 = 12x
264 = x
first class --- 264/3 = 88
2nd class --- 264/4 = 66
third class --- 88
fourth class --- 22
