    6x + 5 = k

    7y + 6 = k

    9z + 8 = k

    6x + 5 = 7y + 6

    6x = 7y + 1

    Let y = 5; 6x = 36; x = 6

    Let y = 11; x = 13

    Let y = 17; x = 20

    7y + 6 = 9z + 8

    7y = 9z + 2

    Let z = 13; 7y = 119; y = 17

    x = 20; y = 17; z = 13 is a solution.

    k = 125

    125 is a solution.
