Comment Comment by qsort Am I stupid or this is solvable with pen and paper?The word problem directly translates to this system of diophantine equations: (i) { x + y + z = 100 (ii) { 6x + 4y + z = 200 Replacing z in (ii) using (i) yields: (ii) <=> 6x + 4y - x - y + 100 = 200 <=> 5x + 3y = 100 Which is solvable with the usual method. parent qsort 2 years ago
