Answer:

Explanation:

The sum of 3 numbers is 16 the first double is the second the third is 1 more then the first what are the 3 numbers

Let us represent

First number = a

Second = b

Third = c

The sum of 3 numbers is 16

a + b + c = 16

the first double is the second

a = 2b

the third is 1 more then the first

c = a + 1
