​

Answer 1

Answer:

14,15,16 will be the answer

Answer 2

☆ Given :

• Sum of three consecutive integers are 45.

☆ To find :

• The integers.

☆ Solution :

Let the first integer be x

Then second Integer will be (x + 1)

And the third integer will be (x + 2)

According to Question,

↣ (x) + (x + 1) + (x + 2) = 45

↣ x + x + x + 1 + 2 = 45

↣ 3x + 3 = 45

↣ 3x = 45 - 3

↣ 3x = 42

↣ x = 42/3

↣ x = 14

Therefore,

• First integer (x) = 14
• Second integer (x+1) = 14+1 = 15
• Third integer (x+2) = 14+2 = 16

Check :

As per given that,

Sum of three consecutive integer = 45

→ (x) + (x + 1) + (x + 2) = 45

Putting the value,

(14) + (14 + 1) + (14 + 2) = 45

14 + 15 + 16 = 45

45 = 45

Hence, the values in both sides are equal.

∴ Checked !!
