The digit in the hundreds place is 3 times greater than the digit in the ones place.

The digit in the ones place is 6 less than the digit in the hundred thousands place.

If you mark digit in the one place with x and digit in the hundreds place with h
this mean:

h = 3 x

and

x = h - 6

Replace x = h - 6 in the equation

h = 3 x

h = 3 * ( h - 6 )

h = 3 h - 3 * 6

h = 3 h - 18 Add 18 to both sides

h + 18 = 3 h - 18 + 18

h + 18 = 3 h Subtract h to both sides

h + 18 - h = 3 h - h

18 = 2 h Divide both sides by 2

18 / 2 = 2 h / 2

9 = h

h = 9

x = h - 6 = 9 - 6 = 3

x = 3

The digit in the ones place = 3

The digit in the hundreds place = 9

Now:

The tens place is 4 more than the ones place = 3 + 4 = 7

The tens place = 7

The digit in the ones place is 6 less than the digit in the hundred thousands place mean:

x = The hundred thousands place - 6

x = The hundred thousands place - 6 Add 6 to both sides

x + 6 = The hundred thousands place - 6 + 6

x + 6 = The hundred thousands place

3 + 6 = The hundred thousands place

9 = The hundred thousands place

The hundred thousands place = 9

The digit in the thousands place is 5

The digit in the millions place is the difference between the tens place and the thousands place mean:

The digit in the millions place = The tens place - The thousands place

The digit in the millions place = 7 - 5 = 2

The digit in the ten thousands place is 9

So:

The digit in the millions place = 2

The hundred thousands place = 9

The digit in the ten thousands place = 9

The digit in the thousands place is 5

The digit in the hundreds place = 9

The in the tens place = 7

The digit in the ones place = 3

The mystery number = 2 995 973
