Rather than trial and error, you can do this with an equation.
x + x+1 + x+2 = 267 =>
3x+3 = 267
x = 264/3 = 88
So the numbers are 88+89+90. 90 is the largest number.
J=john
m=mary
j is 2 times as old as mary
j=2 times m
sum is 21
m+j=21
find mary
subsitute
j=2m therefor subsitute 2m for j
m+2m=21
add like terms
3m=21
divide by 3
m=7
mary=7
