Martina, brian, and austin sent a total of 92 text messages over their cell phones during the weekend. austin sent 8 more messages than martina. brian sent 2 times as many messages as austin. how many messages did they each send?

Make Martina as x, then austin is x＋8, brian is 2(X＋8). X＋(X＋8)＋2(X＋8)＝92,
4x＝92-8-16,
X＝17
M is 17, A is 25, B is 50

The question is kind of confusing. if it's asking how many variations of answers can you give. then do 4^5 for your answer.this would be something like the first question could be a and the 2nd c or first b next c etc. if you can, ask the teacher for a better confirmation of what it's asking. if i'm assuming correctly what it's asking, it's 625 different variations.
