    Let’s assign variables for each workers

    Let x = number of boxes sorted by worker 1

    Let y = number of boxes sorted by worker 2

    Let Z = number of boxes sorted by worker 1

    => X = 3Y

    => X = 2Z

    The equation would be:

    => X + Y + Z = 66

    => X + X/3 + X/2 = 66

    => 6X + 2 X + 3 X = 396

    => 11 X = 396

    => 11X / 11 = 396 / 11

    => X = 36

    X = 36

    Y = 36 / 3 = 12

    Z = 36 / 2 = 18

    => 36 + 12 + 18 = 66
