Answer:
120, 140, 160
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the required multiples be 20( a - 1 ), 20a, 2( a + 1 ).
As given,
their sum = 420
⇒ 20( a - 1 ) + 20a + 20( a + 1 ) = 420
⇒ 20a - 20 + 20a + 20a + 20 = 420
⇒ 20a + 20a + 20a = 420
⇒ 60a = 420
⇒ a = 420/60 = 7
Hence,
Numbers are :
20( a - 1 ) = 20( 7 - 1 ) = 20*6 = 120
20a = 20(7) = 140
20(a+1) = 20(7+1) = 160
