Question

find three consecutive numbers whose sum is 27​

Answer 1

Answer:

The sum is=27

so the first will be =x

second will be =x+1

third will be=x+2

so

x+x+1+x+2=27

3x+3=27

3x=27-3

x=24/3

x=8

x=8

x+1=8+1=9

x+2=8+2=10

Answer 2

Answer:

8,9 and 10

Step-by-step explanation:

consecutive numbers means the near number like 1 2 3...

(note that when we transport a consent from one side to other

add become subtraction

subtraction become add

division become multiplication

multiplication become division)

1st consecutive number is x

2nd consecutive number is x+1

3rd consecutive number is x+1+1(x+2)

since,the equation is x+x+1+x+1+1=27

3x+3=27

3x=27-3=24

x=24/3=8

then,1st consecutive number is 8 (x)

2nd consecutive number is 8+1=9 (x+1)

3rd consecutive number is 8+1+1=8+2=10

since the consecutive numbers are 8,9 and 10.

hope this will help you.
