Try this...This simple

import java.util.Scanner;

class numbers
{
   public static void main(String args[])
   {
      int x, y, z;
      System.out.println("Enter three integers ");
      Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);

      x = in.nextInt();
      y = in.nextInt();
      z = in.nextInt();

      if ( x > y && x > z )
         System.out.println("First number is largest.");
      else if ( y > x && y > z )
         System.out.println("Second number is largest.");
      else if ( z > x && z > y )
         System.out.println("Third number is largest.");
      else   
         System.out.println("Entered numbers are not distinct");
   }
}
