Jack is making flower crowns out of red, pink and white daisies. There are nine times as many pink daisies as white daisies and three less than four times as many red daisies as pink daisies. If there are 6 white daisies, how many daisies are there total?
How many pink daisies are there? ** First find the total number of pink daisies: 9 * 6 daisies = <<9*6=54>>54 daisies
How many red daisies are there? ** Then multiply that number by 4: 54 daisies * 4 = <<54*4=216>>216 daisies
How many red daisies are there? ** Then subtract 3 to find the total number of red daisies: 216 daisies - 3 daisies = <<216-3=213>>213 daisies
How many daisies are there? ** Then add the number of each color of daisies to find the total number: 54 daisies + 213 daisies + 6 daisies = <<54+213+6=273>>273 daisies
