Question

Of the three numbers,second is twice the first and is also thrice the third.If the average of the three numbers is 44,fund the largest?

Answer 1

second no is the largest no.

let the largest no = a

so, first no = a/2

and third no = a/3

a/c to ques,

average = (a + a/2 + a/3)/3 = 44

=> (6a + 3a + 2a) = 44×3×6

=> 11a = 44×3×6

=> a = 4×3×6 = 72....

largest no = 72 .... ans

Answer 2

second is the largest number as the value of x is 24
