Work backwards:
45 is 3 less than 48.
1/3 of 48 is 16.
So the number is as much above 12 as it is below 16. The average is 14. So the number is 14.

x-12=(45+3)/3-x
x-12=48/3-x
2x= 16+12=28
x=14 Clean!

12 + x = 1/3 (45-3) - x
or 2x = 14-12
or 2x = 2
or x =1
Answer is 12+1 = 13

45+3=48
48/3=16
so the number lies half way between 12 and 16
Ans=14
