The sum of three numbers is 264 if the first number be twice the second and third number be one-third of the first, then the second number is1. 482. 723. 544. 64

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 2 : 72

Given:

Sum of 3 numbers is 264

The first number is twice 2nd & 3 times the 3rd

Calculations:

Ratio of number = 1 : ½ : ⅓ = 6 : 3 : 2

So,

Let the numbers be 6x, 3x & 2x

According to the question

6x + 3x + 2x = 264

⇒ 11x = 264

⇒ x = 24

Second number = 3x = 3 × 24 = 72

∴ The correct choice is option 2.
