let the three consecutive numbers be x :-
so , the 1st no. = 1x
2nd " = 2x
3rd " = 3x
so, 1x + 2x + 3x = 108
6x =108
x = 108 /6
x= 18
therefore , 1x = 1 × 18 = 18
2x = 2× 18 = 36
3x = 3× 18 = 54
cross-check:-
18+36+54 = 108
hope it helps

Given :
- Find three consecutive numbers whose sum is 108.
To find :
- What are the three numbers.
Calculations :
- We know that we need to find the three consecutive numbers. Let the three consecutive numbers be 1, 2 and 3 respectively.
→ 1 + 2 + 3 = 108
→ 1 + 2 + 3 = 6
→ 108/6
→ 18
→ 1 (18)
→ 18
→ 2 (18)
→ 36
→ 3 (18)
→ 54
- 1 = 18
- 2 = 36
- 3 = 54
→ 1 + 2 + 3 = 108
→ 18 + 36 + 54 = 108
Therefore, the three consecutive numbers are 18, 36 and 53 respectively.
