Answer:
Let’s consider the three consecutive natural numbers to be x, x + 1 and x + 2.
From the given information,
5 (x) = 4 (x + 2) + 9
5x = 4x + 8 + 9
5x – 4x = 17
⇒ x = 17
So, the three consecutive natural number are 17, 17 + 1 and 17 + 2.
Therefore, the three consecutive natural number are 17, 18 and 19.
