there was in the forest and old Peeple Tree
the grand tree had branches 10 and 3
on each branch the lived Birds 14
sparrows Browns cross back and parrot green
twice as many as a parrots were the Crows
and twice as many as those were the sparrows
we wonder how many birds of cats aren't you going to help us find

here is your answer,
_______________
Given, number of branches old Peepal tree has 10 + 3 = 13
Number of birds living on each branch = 14
So, the total number of birds living in the tree = 13 × 14 = 182
Now, consider that the number of parrots be x, crows be y and sparrows be z.
Again, twice as many parrots were crows.
∴ 2x = y
Similarly, twice as many crows were sparrows.
∴ 2y = z
Now, according to the given condition,
x + y + z = 182
⇒ x + 2x + (2y) = 182
⇒ x + 2x + 2(2x) = 182
⇒ x + 2x + 4x = 182
⇒ 7x = 182
⇒ x = 26
∴ number of parrots = x = 26
number of crows = y = 2x = 52
and number of sparrows = z = 2y = 104
