What 3 numbers add up to 11?

Answer 1

Assuming all numbers are to be greater than zero and no duplicates exist within each possible answer, there are 5 possible combinations: 1 + 2 + 8, 1 + 3 + 7, 1 + 4 + 6, 2 + 3 + 6, and 2 + 4 + 5. If one number is allowed to be zero and no duplicates exist within each possible answer, there are 5 additional combinations: 1 + 2 + 8, 1 + 3 + 7, 1 + 4 + 6, 2 + 3 + 6, and 2 + 4 + 5. Removing the duplicates restriction allows: 0 + 0 + 11, 1 + 1 + 9, 2 + 2 + 7, 3 + 3 + 5, 4 + 4 + 3, and 5 + 5 + 1 Other solutions are possible if negative numbers are allowed.
