In a box of red, yellow, and blue colored chips, all but 4 are red, all but 4 are yellow, and all but 4 are blue. How many total colored chips are there in the box?

There are 6 colered chips in the box

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the problem we have to try to pass the words to simpler equations

t = total

r = red chips

b = blue chips

y = yellow chips

t - 4 = r

t - 4 = b

t - 4 = y

r + b + y = t

now that we made the equations we can work with them to find the value of t

(t - 4) + (t - 4) + (t - 4) = t

3t - 12 = t

3t - t = 12

2t = 12

t = 12/2

t = 6
