How many votes did Joey get? ** First, add three to Joey's vote total: 8 votes + 3 votes = <<8+3=11>>11 votes
How many votes did Joey get? ** Then double that number to find the number of votes Barry got: 11 votes * 2 = <<11*2=22>>22 votes
How many votes did Marcy get? ** Then triple that number to find Marcy's vote total: 22 votes * 3 = <<22*3=66>>66 votes
#### 66
