    Tammy sent 19 messages.

    Bill sent 76 messages.

    Jose sent 12 messages.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    No. of messages sent by Tammy = x

    No. of messages sent by Bill = 4*x = 4x

    No. of messages sent by Jose = x - 7

    x + 4x + x - 7 = 107

    6x - 7 = 107

    6x = 107 + 7

    6x = 114

    x = 114/6

    x = 19

    No. of messages sent by Tammy = x = 19

    No. of messages sent by Bill = 4x = 4 * 19 = 76

    No. of messages sent by Jose = x - 7 = 19 - 7 = 12

    Tammy: 19 Bill: 76 Jose: 12

    Let the # of messages Tammy sent = x

    x + 4x + (x-7) = 107
