Congratulations to Abhishek Duggal of Hawaii who won DVBE’s first Numbers Contest.
Here is the solution:
Let x=first number,y=second number,z=third number
x+y+z=99
x=y ÷2 or y=2x
z=3y= 3(2x)=6x
x+2x+6x=99
9x=99
x=11
Do you see how English is translated into equations? The DVBE program gives you lots of practice with these translations.
