    Let the largest number be x:

    smallest number=1/2x

    middle number=3/4x

    total sum of the numbers is:

    x+1/2x+3/4x=252

    9/4x=252

    solving for x we get

    x=252*4/9

    x=112

    thus the largest number is 112

    middle number=3/4*112=84

    smallest number=1/2*112=56

    Answer: 56,84,112
