A little rusty, but this is my opinion.
.25x+1y+.50z= 10700
.35x+1.50y+.50z=15820
_________________________
.60x+2.5y+1z=26520
I would get rid of decimals by multiplying by 10
10 (.6x+2.5y+z)=26520(10)
6x+25y+10z=265200
Now, solve for each variable so you are using common factors.
x=(265200-25y-10z)/6
((265200-25y-10z)/6))+25y-10z=265200
etc... It will work out this way.
OR
Plug the factors into the matrix function on your calculator.
