Question:
The SUM of 3 CONSECUTIVE MULTIPLES of 3 is 108.
Find the numbers.
ANSWER:
Let the 3 CONSECUTIVE NUMBERS be 'x','x+3' and 'x+6'
Given, their SUM is 108.
So,
(x)+(x+3)+(x+6)=108.
x+x+3+x+6=108.
3x+9=108.
3x=108-9.
3x=99.
x=99/3.
x=33.
x+3=33+3=36.
x+6=33+6=39.
Therefore,the 3 numbers are 33,36 and 39.
