Question

3 odd consecutive numbers whose sum is 741

Answer 1

Let the numbers be x, x+2 and x+4

Then

x+x+2+x+4=741

3x+6=741

3(x+2)=741

x+2=741/3

x+2=247

x=247-2

x=245

Then numbers are 245,245+2=247 and 245+4=249

Verification

245+247+249

492+249

=741

Hence my answer is correct

Answer 2

Let the second number be x
Then the previous number will be x-2
And the next number will be x+2


Now (x-2)+x+(x+2) =741

3x=741
X=247




The previous number is 245 and the next is 249


The numbers are 245,247 and 249.
