Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

Let the first number = x

Let the second number = 2x

Let the third number = x + 100

Total = 468

==============

Solution

x + 2x + x + 100 = 468                    Combine the xs

4x + 100 = 468                                Subtract 100 from  both sides

4x = 468 - 100

4x = 368                                          Divide by 4

x = 368/4

x = 92

===============

Answer

First number =                     92

Second num = 2 * 92=       184

Third number = 92 + 100= 192

Total                                    468
