There are 9  stick and 3 onion ring in the meal.

Let x represent the number of  stick and y represent the number of onion ring.

There are 960 total calories, hence:

90x + 50y = 960   (1)

There are 3 times as many stick as there are onion ring. Hence:

x = 3y

x - 3y = 0     (2)

Solving equation 1 and 2 simultaneously gives:

x = 9, y = 3

There are 9  stick and 3 onion ring in the meal.
