    Martina 29, Scott 23 and Jim 69.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    We are told that:

    Martina served six more X orders than Scott (X+6).

    So, Scott served X orders.

    And Jim served 3 times X order as Scott.

    We will have then:

    X + (X+6) + 3X = 121

    5X + 6 = 121

    5X = 121 - 6

    5X = 115

    X = 115/5

    X = 23

    So, Scott served 23 orders, Martina 29 and Jim 69.
