Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let 1st number be x

let the second number be 2x

let the 3rd one be 3x

x+2x+3x=138

6x=138

x=138/6

x=23

1st no = x = 23

2nd no = 2x = 46

3rd no = 3x = 69

Answer 2

Answer:

23,46,69

Step-by-step explanation:

numbers are in the ratio of 1:2:3.

So assume the numbers are x:2x:3x

Sum=x+2x+3x=138

6x=138

x=138/6=23

THus the numbers are

x=23

2x=23*2=46

3x=3*23=69
