Answer 2

GIVEN:-

The sum of three consecutive multiples of 5 is 180.

To Find:-

Find the numbers.

SOLUTION:-

Let the nos be x, x+5, x+10.

According to the question,

$\large\Longrightarrow{\sf{x+x+5+x+10=180}}</p><p>$

$\large\Longrightarrow{\sf{3x+15=180}}$

$\large\Longrightarrow{\sf{3x=180-15}}$

$\large\Longrightarrow{\sf{3x=165}}$

$\large\Longrightarrow{\sf{x=\huge\frac{165}{3}}}$

$\large\therefore\boxed{\sf{x=55}}$

Therefore,

The numbers are:-

x = 55

x + 5 = 55 + 5 = 60

x + 10 = 55 + 10 = 65

$\large\pink\therefore\boxed{\sf{\pink{The\: numbers\: are \:55, \:60, \:65.}}}$
