    Let the number of calories from lunch be called L. As such, breakfast is then L + 128, and dinner is 2L - 400. We can then sum the three meals and equate it to the total caloric intake, the known value of 1932.

    So: 1932 = L + L + 128 + 2L - 400 = 4L - 272.

    Lunch = 551

    Breakfast = 551 + 128 = 679

    Dinner = 2*551 - 400 = 702
