Answer:

  • See below

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first test score is x, then the next two are x - 10 and x - 20 and the total of three is 258.

We can reflect this as:

  • x + x - 10 + x - 20 = 258

Solving we get:

  • 3x - 30 = 258
  • 3x = 258 + 30
  • 3x = 288
  • x = 288/3
  • x = 96

The scores are: 96, 86 and 76
