Let the first number be $\"x\"$ , then the second number is $\"2x\"$ , the third number is $\"%28x%2B100%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "The sum of these three numbers is $\"x%2B2x%2B%28x%2B100%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x%2B2x%2Bx%2B100=336\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"4x=336-100\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"4x=236\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=236%2F4\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=59\"$
\n" ); document.write( "The first number is $\"59\"$ , the second number is $\"2%2A59=118\"$ , the third number is $\"59%2B100=159\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Answer: 59, 118, 159 \n" ); document.write( "
