The sum of three consecutive multiple of 3 is 72. find the three numbers​

Answer 1

Answer:

The numbers are 21, 24, 27

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the three numbers = x,x+3, x+6

x+3+x+x+6=72

3x+9=72

3x=63

x=63/3

x= 21

the three numbers =21, 24, 27

Answer 2

Answer:

21,24,27

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the lowest consecutive number be x

So x+x+3+x+6=72

x+x+x+6+3=72

3x+9 =72

3x=72-9

3x=63

x=63/3

x=21

So the lowest consecutive number is 21

The next consecutive multiples of 3 after 21 are 24 and 27

Check: 21+24+17=72

72=72. LHS = RHS

HENCE 21 ,24,27 are the consecutive multiples

Hope it helps
