      Solution

      Let the three numbers are a, b and c. According to question, => (a + b)/2 + c = 56 ⇒ a + b + 2c = 112 ------ (i) => (b + c)/2 + a = 46 ⇒ b + c + 2a = 92 ------ (ii) => (c + a)/2 + b = 50 ⇒ c + a +2b = 100 ------ (iii) Add (i), (ii) and (iii) => 4(a + b+ c) = 304 ⇒ a + b + c = 304 /4 = 76
