Answer:

3p + 26  

Step-by-step explanation:

Let S = Sue's newspapers sold

     B = Bill's newspapers sold

     H = Harry's newspapers sold.

We have three conditions:

(1)   S = B + 26

(2)  B = 3H

(3)  H = p     Substitute (3) into (2)

(4) B = 3p     Substitute (4) into (1)

      S = 3p + 26

Sue sold 3p + 26 newspapers.
