the sum of three numbers is 21. the sum of twice the first number, 5 times the second number, and 6 times the third number is 94. the difference between 3 times is the first number and the second number is 10. find the three numbers

Answer provided by our tutors

let 'a', 'b' and 'c' represent the three numbers


a+b+c=21

2a+5b+6c=94

3a-b=10

solving this system we have:

a = 6

b = 8

c = 7


the numbers are 6, 8 and 7
