Firstly, switch to matrix form.
[113120111][x1x2x3]=[112]
Now, form augmented matrix and by Gaussian climination reach row reduced echelon form.
Form augmented matrix [113112011112]
R2+R1 and R3R1R3 [113103300243]
R2/3R2  [113103300243]
R1R2R2 and R3+2R2R3 and R3/3R3[10210101.50011.5]
R1+2R3R1 and R2+R3R2 [10020101.50011.5]
From here, we have solution.
x1=2x2=1.5x3=1.5
Result: x1=2x2=1.5x3=1.5
