let ones place ix x
hundred number is x+2

ones + tens +hundred =20
x+x+3+x+2=20
3X+5=20
3x=20-5=15
X=5
DISABLED_event_ones= 5
tens place =8
hundred place =7

You can put this solution on YOUR website! H= hundreds digit; O=ones digit=H-2; T=tens digit=O+3=H+1
H+T+O=20 (sum of digits is 20)
H+(H+1)+(H-2)=20
3H-1=20 Add 1 to each side
3H=21 Divide each side by 3
H=7 ANSWER 1 Hundreds digit is 7
