Answer 2

Here is your solution

Given :-

The sum of three consecutive numbers is 156

Let consecutive number be x ,x+1,x+2

A/q

=>x+(x+1)+(x+2)= 156
=>3x+3=156
=>3x=156-3
=>3x = 153
=>x=51

The three consecutive numbers is

x = 51

x +1 = 51+1 = 52

x+2 = 51+2 = 53

The three consecutive numbers is 51,52,53

Hence

52 is second number ✔
