You can put this solution on YOUR website!

h=hundreds
t=tens
o=ones
given:
2t=o =>t=o%2F2
Two of the digits are 5 and 8.
It has more hundreds than tens.
so, o could be only 8 =>t=8%2F2=4

if it has more hundreds than tens, then hundreds could be at least h=5
so, your number is: 548
but, third digit h could be h=6, h=7, or h=9 if digits cannot repeat
so, your number could also be: 648,748, or 948
