what is the sequence for putting the values and what is the correct formula I used one vendor's workbook and it has been asked to configure bandwidth three times more significant than either load or delay for EIGRP

and the solution is

router eigrp 200
metric weights 0 3 1 1 0 0

and in cisco website metric calculation for EIGRP is given in sequence

Bandwidth,Delay,Reliability,Loading,and MTU.

so according to that
metric weight should be
metric weights 0 3 1 1 1 0

Here are the defaults:

Defaults
tos: 0
k1: 1
k2: 0
k3: 1
k4: 0
k5: 0

Bandwidth = k1 and delay = k3
load = k2, reliability = k4, mtu = k5

defaults:
Router#show ip pro
4w0d: %SYS-5-CONFIG_I: Configured from console by consolet
Routing Protocol is "eigrp 200"
Outgoing update filter list for all interfaces is not set
Incoming update filter list for all interfaces is not set
Default networks flagged in outgoing updates
Default networks accepted from incoming updates
EIGRP metric weight K1=1, K2=0, K3=1, K4=0, K5=0

That being said:
router eigrp 200
metric weights 0 3 1 1 0 0

is correct.
