Question

Divide 534 into three parts such that the second part will be 32 less than twice the first,and the third will be 18 more than thr first​

Answer 1

Answer:

137, 242, 155

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the three numbers be x, y, z

From question,

y = 2x-32

z = 18+x

x + y + z = 534

Now , x + (2x-32) + (18+x) = 534

x = 137

y = 2(x) - 32 = 2*137 - 32 = 242

z = 137 + 18 = 155

Answer 2

Answer:

let the first number be x

Step-by-step explanation:

second number =2x-32

third number =x+18

242

so 534 = x+(2x-32)+(x+18)

534=4x -14

534 + 14 = 4x

548 = 4x

x = 548 /4

x = 137

2nd number = 2x - 32

= 274 - 32

= 242

3rd number = x +18

= 137 +18

=155

so

137 + 242 + 155

= 534
