My dughter's homework is very difficult. Can you please help? It goes like this: "At Irv's Cycle Rental Shop, Irv rents all kinds of cycles: unicycles, tandem bikes, regular bikes, and even tricycles for little kids. He parks all the cycles in front of his shop with a helmet for each rider strapped to the cycles. This morning Irv counted 57 helmets and 115 wheels parked in front of his store. He knows he has an equal number of unicycles and tandem bikes. He also knows that he has 32 regular bikes. How many unicycles, tandem bikes, and tricylcles does Irv have?" Please help her. Tell me how you got the answer. And not just an answer. If you don't know the answer but know how to work it. Please tell me that too. Thanks.
