It's not absolutely necessary to get rid of that decimal fraction, but you might find the solution more easily if you do this. Multiply all 3 terms by 10.

Next, subtract 24 from both sides of the resulting equation. If you've done this correctly, you'll have an equation for c, which is the answer you wanted.

Let x be equal to the number of drinks Yasmine consumed.
Jose had 2 times that drink so his number of consumed drink would be represented by 2x.
Sally had 3 fewer drink than Jose so her number of consumed drinks would be represented by 2x-3.
Altogether, the three of them consumed 72 drinks so your equation would be:
x+2x+(2x-3)=72
add like terms together:
5x-3=72
have the term with x be alone on one side of the equation, in this case by adding three to both sides:
5x=75
now divide both sides by five for the value of x and your answer is.....
x=15
