Let's represent the number of months it will take for Harold to have 50 pairs of Jordans as "x".
Since Harold plans to add 3 new pairs each month, the number of pairs he will have after x months is 23 + 3x.
According to the equation, we have:
23 + 3x = 50
To solve for x, we subtract 23 from both sides:
3x = 50 - 23
3x = 27
Finally, we divide both sides by 3:
x = 9
So, it will take Harold 9 months to have 50 pairs of Jordans.
