Question

During a pancake making contest, Team A makes 8 more pancakes than team B. Team C made twice as many pancakes is team B. Together, the three teams made a total of 72 pancakes. How many pancakes did team A make?

Answer 1

A = 24

Explanation:

Use the problems provided info!

A = B+8

C = 2B

72 = B+8+2B+B

72-8 = 4B

6434 = 4B/4

16 = B

A = 24

B = 16

C = 32
