<h2>Answer:</h2>
A.
Let Annie's weight be = a
Let Benjie's weighs = b
Let Carmen's weight be = c
One day Annie weighed 24 ounces more than Benjie, equation forms:
......(1)
Benjie weighed 3 1/4 pounds less than Carmen.
In ounces:
1 pound = 16 ounces
pounds =
ounces
or
......(2)
Now adding (1) and (2), we get
a+b=b+24+c-52
=>
This gives Annie weighs 28 ounces less than Carmen.
B.
We cannot know anyone's actual weight, as we only know their relative weights.
