Bob had 7 fish in his ornamental fish pond. 3 were orange, and 4 were white. He decided he wanted to get some more, so he went to the pet store. He had a sales assistant at the pet shop dip out 17 fish out of a mixed tank of both white and orange fish. When he got them home and added them to his pond, he found that he now had twice as many orange fish as white fish. How many white fish did Bob buy at the store?
E re ka a dirisitse makgotafatshe otlhe, o dueletse bontlha bongwe jwa dijo tsa gagwe ka makgotafatshe a a kana 140*$0.25 = $<<140*0.25=35>>35
Gape o dirisitse 3/5*10 = <<3/5*10=6>>6 ya masome a mabedi go duelela dijo.
Palogotlhe ya masome a mabedi a a a dirisitseng ke 6*$20 = $<<6*20=120>>120
O dirisitse $120+$35 = $<<120+35=155>>155 mo dijong.

Bob started with 7 fish and bought seventeen, so he had 7 + 17 = <<7+17=24>>24 fish.
Let x = the number of white fish.
Bob has twice as many orange fish as white fish, so 2*x + x = 24 fish
3*x = 24
x = 24/3 = <<24/3=8>>8 white fish.
Bob started with 4 white fish, so he bought 8 - 4 = 4 white fish at the store.
