Let the first number be x
so,
x+2x+2x+5 = 25
5x + 5 = 25
5x = 20
x = 20/5 = 4
The first number is x = 4
second number is 2x = 2*4 = 8
third number is 2x + 5 = 2*4 + 5 = 13
HOPE THIS HELPS

Answer:
4,8, 13
Step-by-step explanation:
Take three numbers as x,y,z
x + y + z = 25 ---- (1)
A.C.Q,
y = 2x
x = y/2 ---- (2)
and
z = y + 5 ---- (3)
Place (2),(3) in (1).
y/2 + y + y + 5 = 25
=> y + 2y + 2y + 10 = 50
=> 5y + 10 = 50
=> y = 8
Place y = 8 in (2).
x = 4
Place y = 8 in (3)
z = 13
Hence, the numbers are 4,8 and 13.
