Question

The sum of 3 consecutive number is 228, determine the second integer

Answer 1

228 divided by 3 equel to 76..so second number is 76,,first is 75 and 3rd is 77

Answer 2

$hey \: mate \: here \: is \: your \: answer$

$\textbf{Given That.... }$

The Sum Of 3 Consecutive ( example- (1,2,3) , (6,7,8) ) Numbers Is 228 , We Need To
Find Second Number.

$\textbf{Solution...}$

Now To Find The Numbers First . Follow The Simple Steps ..

1)) Let The

- First Number = X

Now As All Are Consecutive.

So The Second Number Would Be = X + 1

And Third Number = X + 2

So Now According To Question

The Sum Of All The Three Numbers = 228

That is ➡️

$(x)+ (x + 1) + (x + 2) = 228$

Now Opening The Bracket And Finding The Sum We have...

$3x + 3 = 228$

Now Taking 3 To RHS We Have ➡️...

$3x = 228 - 3$

That Is ➡️

$3x = 225$

Now Taking 3 To RHS We Have....

$x = \frac{225}{3} = 75$

Now We Know The Value Of X = 75

Now Putting This Value In Assumed Number We Have ....

First Number = X = 75

Second Number = X + 1 ➡️ 75 + 1 = 76

And

The Third Number = X + 2 ➡️ 75 + 2 = 77

Now The Second Integer Is Equal To 76

$\textbf{Hence The Required Answer Is..}$

$\textbf{Second Integer = 76}$
