See, pls, the offered decision:
1. this ratio has another form: 2x/3x/4x;
2. the difference between the largest and the smallest is 4x-2x=10.
Then x=5, and the sequence of numbers is 10/15/20, where 15 is the middle number.
Answer: 15.
I do believe it is 12 as well considering the fact that it's negative three and not positive. If it was a positive three then maybe it would be 18.
1) given 6x = 4x + 140
2) subtract 4x from both sides => 6x - 4x = 4x - 4x + 140
=> 2x = 140
3) divide both members by 2 => 2x / 2 = 140 / 2
=> x = 70
4) Answer: x = 70
1_ 0/4. ( if toss a coin twice, we won't have three results)
2_ 0/4
3_ 3/4
4_ 3/4
5 _ 1/4
6_ 1/4
good luck
