Step-by-step explanation:

the numbers of the yellow and white counters

= 288- 38 = 250.

the ratio of yellow to white = 1:4

so,

the numbers of the yellow counters =

1/(1+4) × 250 =1/5 ×250 = 50

the numbers of the white counters =

4/(1+4) ×250 = 4/5 ×250 = 200

and the numbers of the red counters = 38
