Let the number of green apples bought be x


Green apples = x

Red apples = 2x

Yellow apples = 1/3 (2x) = 2/3 x


Total = 22 apples

x + 2x + 2/3 x = 22

11/3 x = 22

11x = 66

x = 6


Green apples = x = 6

Red apples = 2x = 2(6) = 12

Yellow apples = 2/3 (2x) = 2/3 (6) = 4


Answer: Green = 6, Red = 12, Yellow = 4
