Let's call the three numbers A, B, and C.
According to the given information:
- A + B + C = 1000
- A + B = 650
- B + C = 550
To find the values of A, B, and C, we can solve these equations simultaneously using algebraic methods.
We'll start by solving equation 2 for A: A = 650 - B
Now substitute this value for A in equations 1 and 3: (650 - B) + B + C = 1000 650 + C = 1000 C = 1000 - 650 C = 350
Substitute the value of C in equation 3: B + 350 = 550 B = 550 - 350 B = 200
Now substitute the values of B and C in equation 1: A + 200 + 350 = 1000 A = 1000 - 550 A = 450
So, the three numbers are A = 450, B = 200, and C = 350.
