Question 277440
The sum of three numbers is 138. The second is 5 more than the smallest and the third is 10 more than the smallest. Find the numbers. Thank you

Let the smallest number be x

second will be x+5

third will be x+10

x+x+5+x+10=138

3x+15=138

3x=138-15
3x=123
x=123/3
=41

the numbers are 41, 46 and 51
