"The tribe has grown a wonderful harvest of crops. The chief is very smart and has allocated all the crops to three families with different sizes. To each family, he gives 10 tons more than half of what remains after he has given to the previous family. How many tons of crops did the chief start with?
To make it a little easier for you, i'll give you the hints:
- the chief visited each family one at a time and allocated 10 tons of crops more than half of what he had. So, each family's crops are not equal.
- by the time the chief has reached the last family, the total of half of his supplies equals 10 tons.
- the chief gives the first family 80 tons of crops.
