Vinay bought a pizza and cut into three pieces When he weighed the
first piece he found that it was 7g lighter than the second piece
he found 4g Heavier than the third piece If the whole pizza weighed
300g How much did each of the three pieces weigh

Brijendra Pal · Accepted Answer

Let the weight of first be x then second will be x+7 and third will
be x-4

Given Total weight = 300 g

x + x - 4 + x + 7 = 300

3x = 297

x = 99

Therefore, Weight of

1) 1st Piece = x = 99g

2) 2 nd Piece = x + 7 = 106g

3) 3 rd piece = x-4 = 95 g

Vinay bought a pizza and cut into three pieces. When he weighed the first piece he found that it was 7g lighter than the second piece he found 4g. Heavier than the third piece. If the whole pizza weighed 300g. How much did each of the three pieces weigh
