Answer 1

When Anne Betty and Cynthia compared the amount of money each had, they discovered that Anne and Betty together had $12 Betty and Cynthia together had $18 and Anne and Cynthia together had $10.
Who had the least amount of money? and how much was it?
a +b = 12
b + c = 18
a + c = 10
So what I did is simple XD A logical guess and check. I started with a = 1, but that was to little. And also didn't match up. So I kept going up and got a = 2, b = 10, and c = 8
