by : $8$

 * Buying Buns
 * Buns were being sold at three prices:
 * one a penny,
 * two a penny,
 * and three a penny.
 * Some children (there were as many boys as girls) were given sevenpence to spend on these buns, each receiving exactly alike.


 * How many buns did each receive?


 * Of course no buns were divided.
