DIFFICULTY:

EASY

PREREQUISITES:

Basic Mathematics

EXPLANATION:

First step is to check the no. of complete sets of N+M we get within K.Thereafter the job is find out the remaining candies to be bought in order to have K candies in total.

SOLUTIONS:

Setter's Solution
#include <bits/stdc++.h>

using namespace std;

int main() {
long long t, n, m, k, q, l;
cin>>t;
while(t–)
{
cin>>n>>m>>k;
q=k/(n+m) ;
l=q * n+min(n,k-q*(n+m));
cout<<l<<endl;
}
return 0;
}
