Dividing money

Vilem, Cenek, and Edita divided the money they earned by spreading the leaflet. Vilem got 240 CZK more than Cenek and twice more than Edita. Edita got 400kc less than Vilem.

Correct result:

C =  560
V =  800
x =  400
s =  1760 Kc

Solution:


V=240+C
V = 2x
x = V-400

V=240+C
V = 2•x
x = V-400

C-V = -240
V-2x = 0
V-x = 400

C = 560
V = 800
x = 400
