Nico and Nancy each have a standard drum set of four cymbals, whereas Martin does not. Instead, Martin’s drum set has one and one-half the standard number of cymbals. What is the total number of cymbals between the three drummers?

\begin{gathered} \text{Total number of cymbals betw}enthedrummers\text{= 4}+4+1(1)/(2) \\ =8+(3)/(2)*4 \\ =8+1.5*4 \\ =8+6 \\ =14 \end{gathered}
