CO + 3H2 ---> CH4 + H20  Solve delta H?

1)H2 + 1/2O2 ---> H2O             DELTA H= -241.8 kJ
2) CO + 1/2 O2 ---> CO2           DELTA H= -283 kJ
3) 2CO + 2H2 ---> CH4 + CO2    DELTA H= -247.1 kJ

Explanations of steps would be appreciated
The answer should be -205.9kJ

What does Hess's Law mean? How can you apply it to this scenario?
