Answer:
Let a, b, c = the three digits
then
100a+10b+c = "the number"
:
Write an equation for each statement simplify as much as possible:
:
the sum of the digits of a number consisting of three digit is 12.
a + b + c = 12
:
he middle digit is equal to half of the sum of the other two.
b = 5(a+c)
:
if the order of the digit be reversed the number is diminished by 198 find be number
100c + 10b + a = 100a + 10b + c - 198
100c - c + 10b - 10b = 100a - a - 198
99c = 99a - 198
simplify, divide by 99
c = a - 2
:
In the 2nd equation, b = .5(a+c), replace c with (a-2)
b = 5(a + a - 2)
b = 5(2a-2)
b = a - 1
:
In the 1st equation replace b with (a-1); replace c with (a-2)
a + (a-1) + (a-2) = 12
3a - 3 = 12
3a = 12 + 3
a = 15/3
a = 5
then using the above equations we know that:
b = 4
and
c = 3
:
543 is the number
:
:
Check that in the last statement
345 = 543 - 198
