Question 1:
Of the three numbers, second is twice the first and is also thrice the third, if the average of the three numbers is 44.Find the largest number?
A. 24
B. 72
Feedback Let the third number be x.
Then second number = 3x.
First number=3x/2.
Therefore x+3x + (3x/2) = (44*3) or x=24
So largest number = 2nd number = 3x = 72.
Then second number = 3x.
First number=3x/2.
Therefore x+3x + (3x/2) = (44*3) or x=24
So largest number = 2nd number = 3x = 72.
C. 65
D. 55
