Answer :

If the sum of three numbers is 20 , then the product of all the three numbers is 28  .

In the question ,

the sum of three numbers is given as = 20 ,

let the three numbers be x₁ , x₂ and x₃ .

So , x₁ + x₂ + x₃ = 20 ,

the first number is 4 times the sum of other two ,

that is , x₁ = 4(x₂ + x₃) ;

and the second number is 7 times the third ,

that is , x₂ = 7x₃

Substituting the values from above in the sum equation ,

we get ,

4(x₂ + x₃) + 7x₃ + x₃ = 20

4(7x₃ + x₃) + 7x₃ + x₃ = 20

32x₃ + 8x₃ = 20

40x₃ = 20

x₃ = 1/2

So , x₂ = 7/2 and

x₁ = 4(7/2 + 1/2) = 32/2 = 16

So ,the product is = 16×(7/2)×(1/2)

= 28 .

Therefore , the product is 28 .
