# Three numbers

What are three numbers that have the property: the sum of the first and second numbers' reciprocals is 12/7, the first and third 11/24, and the second and the third 3/8.

a =  3
b =  4
c =  8

### Step-by-step explanation:

A+B = 7/12
A+C = 11/24
B+C = 3/8

12A+12B = 7
24A+24C = 11
8B+8C = 3

A = 1/3 ≈ 0.333333
B = 1/4 = 0.25
C = 1/8 = 0.125

Our linear equations calculator calculates it.
$c=1\mathrm{/}\left(1\mathrm{/}8\right)=8$
