Of the 3 numbers whose average is 22, the first is 3/8th the sum of other two. What is the first number?1). 162). 203). 224). 18

Answer»

Let the THREE number are x, y and z

GIVEN x = [3(y + z)] /8

⇒ y + z = 8x/3

Now as given AVERAGE of three numbers is 22,

⇒ x + y + z = 66

⇒ x + 8x/3 = 66

⇒ 11x = 198

⇒ x = 18

∴ First number is 18.
