What does A B and C equal when...

AA+BB+CC=BAC

i think it's pretty straight forward :)
have fun

Grammar sucks

(does) You mean "do" and you wanted to put commas between the letters and before the "and."
Just wanted to get back at you

(no grammar wars please)

I didn't think the problem was intended to be a "real" math problem.

99 + 11 + 88 = 198

My fault you're right there. To much calculus, I see variables together and start squaring them and trying to find 2 other equations so I can solve for all 3 variables.

also can be solved by

A = B = C = 3



9 + 9 + 9 = 27

15 39 582 340470


Unless you don't mean multiplication when you say AA

oh ya :P I was thinkin' everything was multiplied not added..

Well it does according to Roger Daltry.
