prompt: The lights in Malcolm’s house are flickering, and he hopes that replacing all of his white lights with colored lights will make it stop. He buys 12 red lights, 3 times as many blue lights, and 6 green lights.  If he still has 5 colored lights left to buy, how many white lights did Malcolm have initially?

messages.content: Malcolm has bought 12 * 3 = <<12*3=36>>36 blue lights.
  This means he has bought a total of 12 + 36 + 6 = <<12+36+6=54>>54 colored lights.
  If he still needs to buy more lights, then he must have initially had 54 + 5 = <<54+5=59>>59 white lights.
