Answer:

Number 1: 49

Number 2: 343

Number 3: 149

Explanation:

Let x be the first number

The equation for this word problem would be: x+7x +100+x=541.

Solving for x:

x+ 7x +100+x=541.

9x+100=541

9x=441

x=49

Then, checking my answer:

49+7(49)+100+49=541

Do 7*49

49+343+100+49

Add all the numbers together

541=541

Then, using 49 as the first number, calculate the other numbers.

Number 1: 49

Number 2: 7*49 = 343

Number 3: 100+49 = 149

Hope this helps!
