let the tens digit be
then
the hundreds digit is
the ones digit is
If the sum of the digits is , we have
...........solve for ............both sides multiply by
the tens digit is
then
the hundreds digit is
the ones digit is
3-digit number is

in a 3-digit number, the hundreds digit is one half of the tens digit.
h = t
The ones digit is one more than the tens digit.
u = t+1
If the sum of the digits is 11,
h+t+u = 11
find the number.
Substitute t for h, t+1 for u in
h+t+u = 11
t + t + t+1 = 11
Solve that for t.
Then find h by substituting what you got for t in h = t.
Then find u by substituting what you got for t in u = t+1.
Then write h,t,u in a row in that order.
