Answer: check the answer below!! Step-by-step explanation: let the numbers be 2x, 3x and 4x… (2x)^3 + (3x)^3 + (4x)^3 = 33957 8x^3 + 27x^3 + 64x^3 = 33957 99x^3 = 33957 x^3 = 33957 ÷ 99 x = 3√343 = 7 the numbers are, 2x = 2×7 = 14 3x = 3×7 = 21 4x = 4×7 = 28 So, 14, 21 and 28 are the numbers… Reply

Step-by-step explanation:
let the numbers be 2x, 3x and 4x…
(2x)^3 + (3x)^3 + (4x)^3 = 33957
8x^3 + 27x^3 + 64x^3 = 33957
99x^3 = 33957
x^3 = 33957 ÷ 99
x = 3√343
= 7
the numbers are,
2x = 2×7 = 14
3x = 3×7 = 21
4x = 4×7 = 28
So,
14, 21 and 28 are the numbers…
