Answer:
The Three consecutive integers are
: 5 ,6 and 7
Given :
➛we are given three consecutive integers .
➛when they are taken in increasing order
and multiplied by 2, 3, and 4 respectively,
they add up to 56.
To Find:
The three consecutive integers.
Solution:
➛we are given three consecutive integers .
➛when they are taken in increasing order
and multiplied by 2, 3, and 4 respectively,
they add up to 56.
Let , the three consecutive integers be a , ( a+1 ) and ( a+2 ).
According to given condition,
➞2a + 3( a+1 ) + 4( a+2 ) = 56
➞2a + 3a + 3 + 4a + 8 = 56
➞9a + 11 = 56
➞9a = 56 - 11
➞9a = 45
➞a = 45 / 9
➞a = 5
Therefore, the three consecutive integers are
➡a = 5
➡a+1 = 5 + 1 = 6
➡a+2 = 5 + 2 = 7
The three consecutive integer numbers are 5, 6 and 7
