Mom bought three cakes at the pastry shop. The first cost 72 crowns. The second was a quarter cheaper than the first.
The third dessert was a third of the total price of all three desserts. By how many crowns was the third dessert more expensive than the second?

Correct answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a=72 b=aa/4=7272/4=54  (a+b+c)/3=c a+b+c=3c  a+b=2c 72+54=2c  72+54=2 c  2c=126  c=2126=63  c=63  x=cb=6354=9
