Question

addition of three number is 264 if first number is double of second number and third number is 1/3 of first number then what is second value?

Answer 1

hye
==========================================

we find additions of 3 numbers = 264
let 1st be a ; 2nd be b ;3rd be c

a = 2b
b=b
c = 1/3 a  or 2/3b [because a = 2b]

=> 2b + b +2/3b = 264

=>11b/3 = 264 

=> b = 264*3/11

=> b = 72
============================
hope it helps

Answer 2

Let second be x,

ATQ,

first number  = 2x

third number =  1/3 of 2x  = $\frac{2x}{3}$


Now,

$x+2x + \frac{2x}{3} = 264$

$\frac{3x+6x+2x}{3} = 264$

11x = 264*3

11x = 792

x= $\frac{792}{11}$

x =72


Now,

number are :- x = 72


                    2x = 2*72= 144

                     $\frac{2x}{3}= \frac{72*2}{3}$ = 24*2 = 48



second value = x = 72 





i hope this will help you
