Answer:
12, 15, 24
Step-by-step explanation:
Let 1st # = x
Let 2nd # = x+3
Let 3rd # = 2x
Your equation is: x + (x+3) + 2x = 51
Add up all the x: x + x +3 +2x =51
Subtract 3 from both sides: 4x + 3 - 3 = 51 - 3
Divide 4 from both sides: 4x / 4 = 48 / 4
Your 1st number is x = 12
For the 2nd # it is 3 more than x so 12 + 3 = 15
For the 3rd # it is 2 times x so 2(12) = 24
Check your answers by adding up the numbers you solved: 12 + 15 +24 = 51
Does it equal to 51 as stated in the question? Yes, answers check out.

When rates are expressed as a quantity of 1, such as 2 feet per second<span> or </span>5 miles per hour<span>, they are called unit rates. If you have a multiple-unit rate such as 120 students for every 3 buses, and want to find the single-unit rate, write a ratio equal to the multiple-unit rate with 1 as the second term.</span>
