While experimenting with 3 cups (A, B, C) and measuring their volumes in tablespoons. It is found that water from 1 cup of A and 4 cups of C gives the same volume as 2 cups of B and 3 tablespoons of water. Water from 1 cup of A and 3 cups of B is the same volume as 6 tablespoons and 2 cups of C. Lastly, 1 cup of A, 3 cups of C and additional 5 tablespoons has the same volume as 4 cups of B. How much is the volume of each cup based on estimation in tablespoons? Show the problem as linear equations and solve the problem above using Cramer's Rule.
