Let the 3 numbers in order of greatest to smallest =
\n" ); document.write( "\"+a+\", \"+b+\", and \"+c+\"
\n" ); document.write( "------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "(1) \"+a+=+c+%2B+10+\"
\n" ); document.write( "(2) \"+b+=+2c+\"
\n" ); document.write( "(3) \"+a+=+b+%2B+c+%2B+2+\"
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "There are 3 equationd and 3 unknowns,
\n" ); document.write( "so it's solvable
\n" ); document.write( "Plug (1) and (2) into (3)
\n" ); document.write( "(3) \"+c+%2B+10+=+2c+%2B+c+%2B+2+\"
\n" ); document.write( "(3) \"+10+=+2c+%2B+2+\"
\n" ); document.write( "(3) \"+2c+=+8+\"
\n" ); document.write( "(3) \"+c+=+4+\"
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( "(2) \"+b+=+2%2A4+\"
\n" ); document.write( "(2) \"+b+=+8+\"
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( "(1) \"+a+=+4+%2B+10+\"
\n" ); document.write( "(1) \"+a+=+14+\"
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------
\n" ); document.write( "a = 14
\n" ); document.write( "b = 8
\n" ); document.write( "c = 4
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
