Answer:

246

Step-by-step explanation:

Establish variables

x = day 1

y = day 2

z = day 3

...

Given

x+y+z = 246

x=79

y = z+47

...

Substitute x and y into the first equation and solve for z

...

 

79 + z+47 + z = 246

Combine like terms

2z = 246 - 79 - 47

2z = 120

...

Divide both sides by 2
