The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, let's denote the three numbers as follows: Let: - The second number be \( x \). - The first number, which is twice the second number, be \( 2x \). - The third number, which is one-third of the second number, be \( \frac{x}{3} \). ### Step 1: Express the three numbers in terms of \( x \) - First number: \( 2x \) - Second number: \( x \) - Third number: \( \frac{x}{3} \) ### Step 2: Calculate the sum of the three numbers The sum of the three numbers can be calculated as: \[ \text{Sum} = 2x + x + \frac{x}{3} \] To simplify this, we need a common denominator. The common denominator for 1 and 3 is 3. Thus, we can rewrite the sum as: \[ \text{Sum} = \frac{6x}{3} + \frac{3x}{3} + \frac{x}{3} = \frac{6x + 3x + x}{3} = \frac{10x}{3} \] ### Step 3: Use the average to find the total sum We know that the average of the three numbers is 100. The average is given by: \[ \text{Average} = \frac{\text{Sum}}{3} \] Thus, we can write: \[ 100 = \frac{\frac{10x}{3}}{3} \] Multiplying both sides by 3 gives: \[ 300 = \frac{10x}{3} \] Now, to eliminate the fraction, multiply both sides by 3: \[ 900 = 10x \] ### Step 4: Solve for \( x \) Dividing both sides by 10 gives: \[ x = 90 \] ### Step 5: Find the three numbers Now that we have \( x \), we can find the three numbers: - Second number: \( x = 90 \) - First number: \( 2x = 2 \times 90 = 180 \) - Third number: \( \frac{x}{3} = \frac{90}{3} = 30 \) ### Step 6: Identify the largest number Among the three numbers \( 180 \), \( 90 \), and \( 30 \), the largest number is: \[ \text{Largest number} = 180 \] ### Final Answer The largest number is **180**.
