Answer:

362

Step-by-step explanation:

let the digits that make up the number be a, b and c with a in the hundred position, b in the tens and c in the units position. Given that

he hundreds digit is one more than the ones digit

a = c + 1

c = a - 1

and the tens digit is twice the hundreds digit

b = 2a

If the sum of the digits is 11

a + b + c = 11

substituting

a + 2a + a - 1 = 11

4a - 1 = 11

4a = 11 + 1

4a = 12

a = 12/4

= 3

recall that

c = a - 1 = 3 - 1 = 2

b = 2a = 2 * 3 = 6

Hence the number is 362
