Lamar, Harris, and Tyler ran a 15-mile relay race as a team. Tyler ran 3 miles farther than Harris, and Lamar ran twice as far as Harris. How many miles was each boy’s leg of the race?

L + H + T = 15
L = 2H
T = H + 3

2H + H + (H + 3) = 15
4H + 3 = 15
4H = 12
H = 3

So Harris ran 3 miles
Lamar = 2H, = 6 miles
Tyler = H + 3 = 6 miles

And to check, 6 + 6 + 3= 15
