2n=a a+n+m=405 8a+4\times 5n+6m=2320
Reorder the equations.
a=2n
Solve 2n=a for a.
2n+n+m=405 8\times 2n+4\times 5n+6m=2320
Substitute 2n for a in the second and third equation.
n=-\frac{1}{3}m+135 m=\frac{1160}{3}-6n
Solve these equations for n and m respectively.
m=\frac{1160}{3}-6\left(-\frac{1}{3}m+135\right)
Substitute -\frac{1}{3}m+135 for n in the equation m=\frac{1160}{3}-6n.
m=\frac{1270}{3}
Solve m=\frac{1160}{3}-6\left(-\frac{1}{3}m+135\right) for m.
n=-\frac{1}{3}\times \frac{1270}{3}+135
Substitute \frac{1270}{3} for m in the equation n=-\frac{1}{3}m+135.
n=-\frac{55}{9}
Calculate n from n=-\frac{1}{3}\times \frac{1270}{3}+135.
a=2\left(-\frac{55}{9}\right)
Substitute -\frac{55}{9} for n in the equation a=2n.
a=-\frac{110}{9}
Calculate a from a=2\left(-\frac{55}{9}\right).
a=-\frac{110}{9} n=-\frac{55}{9} m=\frac{1270}{3}
The system is now solved.
