Question

If the sum of three consecutive numbers is 39 find the numbers

Answer 1

Answer:

3,6,12

Step-by-step explanation:

x +2x+4x=39

3x=39-6

3x=33

x=33/3

x=3

2x=2(3)=6

4x=4(3)=12

Answer 2

let the number be x,x+1,x+2

so, x+x+1+x+2= 39

3x+3=39

x=39-3/3

x= 36/3

x=12

x+1=12+1= 13

x+2=12+2= 14

hence 12+13+14=39
