Question 907195
U = F + 9
C = F + 44
U + C + F = 332
Take the known values of U and C from the equations above and put them into the bottom equation.
U + C + F = 332
(F+9) + (F+44) + F = 332
Add
3F + 53 = 332
Subtract 53 from each side
3F = 279
Divide each side by 3
F = 93
If F is 93, the U is 102 and C is 137
93 + 102 + 137 = 332
France = 93 million, USA = 102 million, China = 137 million
