Do you know the total number of rabbits on the farm?

32 rabbits on farm

shadowfiend · Answer

Got it. In that case, you have three equations:

$$\begin{align}
b + w + g &= 32\
b &= w + 3\
g &= w - 4
\end{align}$$

Where b, w, and g are for brow, white, and gray, respectively. Can you solve that system?
