Problem
Let be the greatest integer less than or equal to
and let
. Find
given that
![\begin{align} x+\lfloor y \rfloor +\{z\}=14.2,\\ \lfloor x \rfloor+\{y\} +z=15.3,\\ \{x\}+y +\lfloor z \rfloor=16.1. \end{align}](http://latex.artofproblemsolving.com/b/c/8/bc892ca775b7d0091d1f28400968efac38f36193.png)
Solution
Let's add all three equations:
And thus .
