At Monroe High the sophomore class has 60 more students then the freshman class. the junior class has 50 fewer students then twice the students in the freshman class. the senior class is three times as large as the freshman class. if there are a total of 1,424 students at monroe high,how many students are in the freshman class?
thank you

This not a mixture problem.
o=f+60
j=2f-50
e=3f
f+o+j+e=1424
f = 202, j = 354, o = 262, e = 606
