One number is 4 times a first number. A third number is 100 more than the first number. If the sum of the three numbers is 526 , find the numbers. The three numbers are nothing. (Use a comma to separate answers as needed.)

The three numbers are 71, 284, 171

Explanation:

Let n = the first number

4n = Second number

100 + n = Third number

Equation :

n + 4n + 100 + n = 526              Combine liked terms

6n + 100 = 526

     - 100   - 100                          Subtract 100 from both sides

6n = 426

÷ 6    ÷ 6                                     Divide 6 from both sides

n = 71

Plug in :

4(71) = 284

100 + 71 = 171

main idea: it is important to prepare today for the needs of tomorrow.

the grasshopper was dying due to hunger, and this was because he didn't prepare for the winter.

the ants told the grasshopper, "if you were foolish enough to sing all the summer, you must dance supperless to bed in the winter."

the ants were spending a fine winter's day drying grain collected in the summertime.
