Explanation:
To find the sum of the three numbers that average to 293, multiply 293 by 3.
You multiply by 3 because when you originally find the average of 3 numbers, you divide the sum of the numbers by 3.
average = sum of numbers / # of numbers
If you subtract 879 from the sum of all 4 numbers (1230), then you know the fourth number.
The fourth number is 351.
