Question

Hi guys.......got one here for ya....
A hardware supplier manufactures three kinds of clamps, types A,B, and C. Production restrictions force it to make 10 more C clamps than the total of the other types and twice as many type B clamps as type A clamps. The shop must produce 310 clamps per day. How many of each type are made per day?

Answer 1

A+b+c=310.
C=a+b+10
b=2a.
So.
A+2a+A+2a+10=310.
6a+10=310.
6a=300.
A=50.
And because b=2a.
B=100.
Because can is a+b+10.
C=160
