Answer:

Cynthia = 12 guavas

Bessy = 36 guavas

Aicel = 72 guavas

Step-by-step explanation:

Total guavas = 120

Let

Cynthia = x

Bessy = 3x

Aicel = 2(3x)

= 6x

x + 3x + 6x = 120

10x = 120

x = 120/10

x = 12

Cynthia = x

= 12 guavas

Bessy = 3x

= 3(12)

= 36 guavas

Aicel = 6x

= 6 × 12

= 72 guavas

Total = 74 + 36 + 12

= 120 guavas
