Question

The sum of 3 odd natural numbers in 153. find the numbers?

Answer 1

let the 3 odd natural numbers be x,x+2,x+4.
according to the problem,
x+x+2+x+4=153
3x+6=153
3x=153-6
x=147/3
=49.
therefore the 3 odd natural numbers are 49 , 49+2=51 ,49+4=53.
ANS:- 49,51,53.

Answer 2

Assuming that, they are consecutive odd numbers
Let three consecutive odd numbers = x, x+2, x+4
Their sum = 153

x + x+2 + x+ 4 = 153
⇒ 3x + 6 = 153
⇒ 3x = 147
⇒ x = 49

The odd numbers are 49, 51, 53
