    The answer to your question is A = 74 ft³, B = 222 ft³, C = 222ft³

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Data

    Total volume = 518 ft³

    Prism A volume = Prism B volume / 3

    Prism B volume = Prism C volume

    Process

    Write an equation in terms of volume of B

    Volume A + Volume B + Volume C = 518

    Substitution

    B/3 + B + B = 518

    (B + 3B + 3B) / 3 = 518

    7B = 3 (518)

    7B = 1554

    B = 1554/7

    B = 222

    Get the volumes

    Volume A = 222/3

    = 74

    Volume B = 222

    Volume C = 222
