Add all 5 equations
$$w+2x+2w+3y+x+3z=150+100+50$$
collect the like terms
$$\left(w+2w\right)+\left(2x+x\right)+\left(3y\right)+\left(3z\right)=300$$
$$3\left(w+x+y+z\right)=300$$
divide both sides by 3
$$\frac{3\left(w+x+y+z\right)}{3}=\frac{300}{3}$$
$$w+x+y+z=\ 100$$
$$answer\ is\ Option\ D$$

We can add the 3 equations together, and we have:

3w + 3x + 3y + 3z = 150 + 100 + 50

3w + 3x + 3y + 3z = 300

w + x + y + z = 100

Answer: D
