There is not only one unique solution. There are infinitely many solutions.

You can't solve this equation with one set of values because there are 3 variables. There are an infinite number of solutions,

For example $M = (b+c)/2$ could be $9 = (15+3)/2$

However, each variable can be the subject of the formula:

For example: $" "b = 2M-c" or "c = 2M-b$

How do you solve the equation M=(b+c)/2M=(b+c)/2?
