Question

can the sum of three consecutive odd numbers be 36. why?
​

Answer 1

Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

To know the answer, let's assume those numbers as x, (x+2), (x+4)

then,

x+x+2+x+4 = 36

3x+6 = 36

3x= 30

x =10.

The no.s will be 10,12,14

So, sum of 3 consecutive odd no.s cannot be 36.
