Question

find three consecutive numbers whose sum is 183​

Answer 1

Let three consecutive number be x , x +1 and x + 2.

According to the question,

X + X + 1 + X + 2 = 183

3X + 3 = 183

3X = 183 - 3

3X = 180

X = 180/3

X = 60.

Therefore,

Three consecutive numbers are 60 , 61 , 62.

Answer 2

Answer:

Given :-

sum of the three consecutive numbers = 183

To find :-

the three consecutive numbers

Solution

let the 1st number be x

let the 2nd number be x+1

let the 3rd number be x+3

A/Q

X + X + 1 + X + 3 = 183

⟿ 3x + 3 = 183

⟿ 3x = 183 - 3 = 180

$⟿ \: \green{ x = \frac{180}{3} = 60}$

Now,

1st number = x = 60

2nd number = x + 1 = 60 + 1 = 61

3rd number = x + 3 = 60 + 3 = 63

So the 3 consecutive numbers are -- 60 , 61 and 62
