Let the number of raisin muffin Adrianne is planning to bake be m 

then no. of chocolate muffin = m/2

       no. of stawberry muffin = 3*(m/2) Adrianne baked 160 raisin muffins

But, ; ; m+fracm2+ 3* fracm2=480

Rightarrow frac2m+m+3m2=480

Rightarrow frac6m2=480

Rightarrow 3m=480

Rightarrow m=160
Therefore, Adrianne baked 160 raisin muffins.
