    A)  120                             

    B)  150

    C)  180                 

    D)  300

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Let the third number be x. \[\therefore \] Second number \[=3x\] First number \[=6x\] \[\therefore \] \[(x+3x+6x)=100\times 3\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[10x=300\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[x=30\] \[\therefore \] The largest number \[=6x\]             \[=\text{ }6\times 30\text{ }=\text{ }180\]
