Answer:
Three numbers are in the ratio 2 : 3 : 4 (given)
so let the numbers be 2x, 3x and 4x respectively
sum of their cubes is 792
It can be written as,
( 2x )^3 + ( 3x )^3 + ( 4x )^3 = 792
8x^3 + 27x^3 + 64x^3 =792
x^3 is the common term so it can be taken out,
x^3 ( 8 + 27 + 64 ) =792
99 x^3 = 792
x^3 = 792 / 99
x^3 = 8
x = cube root of 8
x = 2
2x = 2*2 = 4
3x = 3*2 = 6
4x = 4*2 = 8
so the numbers are 4, 6 and 8
average of the three numbers = 4 + 6 + 8 / 3
average = 18 / 3 = 6
Hence the average of the numbers is 6.
checking the values,
The ratio of these numbers 4 : 6 : 8 is 2 : 3 : 4
Also,
cube of first number, 4 = 64
cube of second number, 6 = 216
cube of third number, 8 = 512
sum of the cubes = 64 + 216 + 512 = 792
Hence verified.
