Answer:

The sum of the other two numbers is 120.

Explanation:

To find an average, you add all the numbers involved and divide it by the amount of numbers involved. in this case,

(x+y+z) ÷ 3 =50

x=30

Divide both sides by three to remove the denominator.

(30+y+z)÷ 3 (*3) = 50(*3)

(30+y+z)=150

Subtract 30 from both sides.

(30+y+z)-30= 150-30

y+z=120
