Solution

First, let's find out how many yellow beads Felipe has. Since he has 2 fewer yellow beads than red beads, and he has 14 red beads, then he has 14 - 2 = 12 yellow beads.

Next, let's find out how many green beads Felipe has. Since he has 7 more green beads than red beads, and he has 14 red beads, then he has 14 + 7 = 21 green beads.

Now, let's add up all the beads. Felipe has 14 red beads, 12 yellow beads, and 21 green beads, so in total, he has 14 + 12 + 21 = 47 beads.
