x = small
y = medium
z = large
---
x + y + z = 1200
x + 2y + 3z = 2200
x = 2z
---
put the system of linear equations into standard form
---
x + y + z = 1200
x + 2y + 3z = 2200
x - 2z = 0
---
copy and paste the above standard form linear equations in to this solver:

solution:
x = small = 400
y = medium = 600
z = large = 200
