On Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, she sold $66 worth. On Thursday she sold $3 more than on Friday. On Saturday She sold $6 more than on Thursday. How much did she take in each day?
------------
T + F + S = 66
T = F + 3
S = T + 6
--------------------
Rearrange the equations:
T + F + S = 66
T - F + 0 = 3
T + 0 - S = -6
------------------
Solve the system:
T = 21
F = 18
S = 27
