Correct Answer: Description for Correct answer:
Let third number be x.
Then, second number = 3x
First number = \( \Large \frac{3x}{2} \)
\( \Large x + 3x + \frac{3x}{2} = \left(44 \times 3\right) \)
\( \Large \frac{11x}{2} = 44 \times 3 \)
\( \Large x = 24 \)
Largest number = second number = 3x = 72
