Moneybags

giant has 20 gold coins.
He
sorts them into three moneybags.

second bag has fewer than ten coins inside.
The
third bag has one more gold coin than the first bag.
The
second bag has three more coins than the third bag.
How
many coins are in each of the moneybags?
Hint: Use coins or pasta to represent the gold
coins. Try to sort the objects into bags
or bowls so that the rules are satisfied.
It might take a few tries.
