Casey has three dogs. Two dogs weigh the same number of pounds. The third dog weighs 15 pounds more than the other two. If the total weight of three dogs is 165 pounds, how much does each dog weigh?

The first two dogs weigh 50 pounds and the third one weighs 65 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the explanation to my answer:

First step,

Subtract 165-15=150 Then,

/ 150 by 3 and you get 50. Because Casey has 3 dogs.

Finally,

Common sense. Huh since you get 50 by doing 150/3, that must mean, you must add! 50+50 = 100 and 100+65=165 so,

The first two dogs weigh 50 pounds and the third one weighs 65 pounds.
