Answer:350:700

Explanation:

so you know there are 350 red flowers in a room and There are 70 more yellow flowers than red flowers. so you do 350+70+420= yellow and you know here are 140 fewer white flowers than yellow flowers so you do 420 - 140 = 280 = white so you do 420 + 280= 700 so you get 350:700
