<human>:  Quentin, Skylar, and Colten have a total of 383 chickens. Quentin has 25 more than double the chickens that Skylar has. Skylar has 4 less than triple the number of chickens that Colten has. How many chickens does Colten have?
<bot>: Define a variable ** Let x represent the number of chickens that Colten has
How many chickens does Skylar have? ** Skylar:3x-4
How many chickens does Quentin have? ** Quentin: 25+2(3x-4)=25+6x-8=6x+17
Write an equation ** Total:x+3x-4+(6x+17)=383
Combine like terms ** 10x+13=383
Subtract 13 from both sides ** 10x=370
Divide by 10 ** x=<<37=37>>37 chickens
