Over the last three evenings, Karen received a total of 100 phone calls at the call center. The second evening, she received 10 fewer calls than the first evening. The third evening, she received 3 times as many calls as the first evening. How many phone calls did she receive each evening?
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------
\n" ); document.write( "f + s + t = 100 calls
\n" ); document.write( "s = f+10
\n" ); document.write( "t = 3f
\n" ); document.write( "--------
\n" ); document.write( "Solve for \"f\"::
\n" ); document.write( "f + f+10 + 3f = 100
\n" ); document.write( "5f = 90
\n" ); document.write( "f = 18 (calls on first night)
\n" ); document.write( "s = f+10 = 28 (calls on second night)
