Starting number = x

(0.4x)+(0.28x)+(x-48) = 78

X=75

Try to understand how I derived my workings. If you need help post a comment.

Assuming I have x pins. If I use 60% of my pins how many % of pins do I have left?

at first
Y: 25 u
M: 25 u
F: 25 u

used
Y: 60% of 25 u = 15 u
M: 120% of 15 u = 18 u
F: 48

left
Y: 25 u - 15 u = 10 u
M: 25 u - 18 u = 7 u
F: 25 u - 48

10 u + 7 u + 25 u - 48 = 78
u = 3

at first, each has 25x3 = 75 pins


***

in case, u wanna know why 25 u?
u can choose other nos. like 10 u, 5 u or just simply u.
the method remains the same.
