A group of friends decided to eat sandwiches. Their team leaders, Franco, Clint and Valir bought 46 sandwiches altogether for their organization’s getaway. Franco bought 5 more sandwiches than Valir. Meanwhile, Valir bought 8 less sandwiches than Clint. How many sandwiches did each team leader buy?

Answer 1

F + C + V = 46

F = V + 5

C = V + 8

(V + 5) + (V + 8) + V = 46 ... 3 V + 13 = 46
