From a bag of peanuts, phillip took 1/3, then joy took 1/4 of the remaining, brent took 1/2 of the remaining, and preston took 10. There were 71 peanuts remaining....how many were there to start?

as you need to add Preston's peanuts to the remainder multiply by 2 then by 4 then by 3

because the rest took 1/2 and 1/4 and 1/3
