Answer: 51,53,55,57
Discussion. By the triangle inequality the sum of the lengths of any two sides is greater than or equal to the third side. In our case, 3 + 54 = 57, so the third side must be less than or equal to 57.

<span>x=number of brown shoes
2x=number of black shoes (twice as many black shoes as brown shoes)
so x+2x=66
add like terms 3x=66
solve for x by dividing 3; x=22
so there are 22 brown shoes and 44 black shoes (2 x 22= 44)</span>
