This website provides a free calculation device, called the Algebraic Calculator for Three Unknowns, available in the JavaScript and spreadsheet formats.  This Calculator solves three equations simultaneously, for three unknowns (for AX+BY+KZ=M, DX+EY+FZ=N, and GX+HY+JZ=W, for X, Y, and Z).  

 

The JavaScript version of the Algebraic Calculator for Three Unknowns functions online and it is embedded in this webpage, below the instructions.  If you want the spreadsheet version, or additional information, scroll all the way down beneath the online Calculator.

 

Instructions for the Algebraic Calculator for Three Unknowns

 

The Algebraic Calculator for Three Unknowns solves three equations for X, Y, and Z.  The equations must be similar to AX+BY+KZ=M, DX+EY+FZ=N, and GX+HY+JZ=W, such as the following examples

 

2X+3Y+5Z=10, 1X+4Y+7Z=18, 9X-4Y+6Z=22

 

-X+2Y-9Z=24, 8X+6Y+12Z=33, 2X+9Y+14Z=36 

 

77X+56Y+45Z=130, 66X+34Y+19Z=68, 35X+32Y+21Z=88

 

2X+3Y+4Z=0, 1X-6Y-9Z=6, 3X+2Y-7Z=-4

 

If the equations you want to solve do not look like the above, try to algebraically rearrange them to make them similar to: AX+BY+KZ=M, DX+EY+FZ=N, and GX+HY+JZ=W.

 

To use the Algebraic Calculator for Three Unknowns enter TWELVE numbers in the twelve white input boxes, for A, B, K, M, D, E, F, N, G, H, J, and W.  (To enter or delete numbers, left click with the mouse on the relevant white input box.)  For calculated results left click with the mouse on the background.  Alternatively, with the online JavaScript version you can press the calculation button, and with the spreadsheet version you can press the enter key.  Numbers and words displayed in red type are calculated results. 

 

Note: If less than 12 numbers are entered the Algebraic Calculator for Three Unknowns may not function properly.  The Calculator has a number of error-checking devices that may display error messages while entering numbers, which may continue until all 12 numbers have been entered.

     If you entered a set of numbers that do not satisfy all of the equations in the Algebraic Calculator for Three Unknowns, you may get error messages that relate to one or more specific equations.

  The Multiple-Algebraic Calculator has a number of error-checking devices (above and below).  
  These devices check the calculations and the numbers you entered to determine if they satisfy  
  the equations. These devices provide feedback in words or numbers. The calculations for  
  all of the error-checking devices are rounded to decimal places. You can change this,  
  by deleting the blue number above, and entering the number of decimal places you prefer. If you enter a number that is too high you may get false indications of errors.  
  Note: The number of zeros displayed is not affected by the blue number.
