Hello friend.here is the solution

Weight of third pizza to be considered 'x'

then, TheWeight of First one Pizza piece = x +4

Then second pizza piece = first piece + Weight less /more

= (x +4)+ 7

= x + 11

Given Total weight = 300 g

x + x + 4 + x + 11 = 300

3x = 300-15

x = 285/3

x = 95

Therefore, Weight of

1) 1st Piece = x +4 = 95 +4 = 99

2) 2 nd Piece = x + 11 = 95 +11 = 106

3) 3 rd piece = x = 95

hope this solution for your question helps you
