"""Since we are familiar with that the probability of drawing R then W = probability of drawing b we have an equation
The question says that (r + w)/(r + w + b) x 2! = (b)/(r + w + b)
Hence 2 r+ 2 w = b
As the Number of tokens is multiplied with three hence the minimum number will be r, b, w = 3, 3, 2(3) + 2(3) = 3, 3, 12 = 18
