Question

the sum of 3 consecutive odd numbers is 75 find the number

Answer 1

let the first odd number be x
Next odd number = x+2
3rd odd number = x+4

A/Q, we get:

x+x+2+x+4 = 75
3x+6 =75
3x = 75-6
x = 69÷3
x = 23

So, the three consecutive odd numbers are,

x = 23
x+2 = 25
x+4 = 27

Answer 2

$<b><font face=Copper black size=4>$Let the three consecutive odd numbers be x + 1, x + 3 and x + 5.

A/q,

x + 1 + x + 3 + x + 5 = 75

=> 3x + 9 = 75

=> 3x = 75 - 9

=> 3x = 66

=> x = 66/3

=> x = 22

•°• Required numbers

x + 1 = 22 + 1 = 23

x + 3 = 22 + 3 = 25

x + 5 = 22 + 5 = 27
