My last math question for the day!

The sum of three numbers is 39. The second number is 3 times the first. The third number is 4 more than the first. What are the three numbers?

I'm too tired to use my brain. Kinda like a stressed out Pentium. Anyways, thanks for the help.

39=x+3x+(x+4)

 

x=7

next number is 21

next is 11
