Question

sum of three consecutive integers is 27 . Find them

Answer 1

let the numbers be x-1,X,X+1
so atq
x-1+X+X+1=27
3x=27
X=9

so the numbers are X-1=9-1=8
X=9
X+1=9+1=10

Answer 2

given

sum of 3 consecutive numbers is 27

let 3 consecutive numbers be x , x+1 , x+2

=> x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 27

=> 3x + 3 = 27

=> 3x = 27-3

=> 3x = 24

=> x = 24/3

=> x = 8

now the numbers are

8 , 8+1 , 8+2

=> 8 , 9 , 10
