Sagot :

Answer:

See below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Anna's, Boris and Clara's numbers be a b and c.

a + 20 = b - 22 + 21

b - 20 =  c + 22 + 21

a + 20 = b - 1

b - 20 = c + 43

a  - b  + 20 = -1      

Adding the last 2 equations:

a  = c + 42

c = a - 42

So Clara's number is 42 less then Anna's number.
