Question

the consective integers are such that when they are taken in increasing order and multiplied by 3'4and 5 reapectively they add up to 86 find these numbers
​

Answer 1

Answer:

the three consecutive integers are 6,7,8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the consecutive integers be x, x+1 and x+2

So, 3x+4(x+1)+5(x+2)=86

     3x+4x+4+5x+10=86

     12x+14=86

     12x=86-14

     x=72/12

     x=6

Hence, the three consecutive integers are 6,7,8
