(a) Let the original number of yellow ball is m. Then the original numbers of red and pruple balls are 4m/3 and 5m/3 respectively.

According to the information,

(m + n)/(m + n + 4m/3 + 5m/3) = 1/3

3(m + n) = m + n + 4m/3 + 5m/3

3m + 3n = 4m + n

m = 2n

(b) Since the values of 4m/3 and 5m/3 should be positive numbers. We conclude that m should be a multiple of 3. Also m is an even number. Let m = 6 then the least possible value of n is 3.
