Question

the sum of three consecutive integers is 51.then find the integers​

Answer 1

Answer:

16 , 17 , 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Let three consecutive integers are -

x , ( x+1 ) , ( x+2 )

So , A/q :-

x + ( x+1 ) + ( x+2 ) = 51

3x + 3 = 51

3x = 51 - 3

3x = 48

=> x = 16

Integers are -> 16 ( x ) , 17 ( x+1 ) , 18 ( x +2 )

Answer 2

Answer:

16,17,18

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose,

1st number= x

2nd number= x+1

3rd number= x+1+1 or x+2

now,

x+x+1+x+2= 51

or, 3x+3=51

or, 3x=51-3

or, x=48/3

or, x=16

now, 1st num or x= 16, 2nd num or x+1=17, 3rd num or x+2=18

ans: 16,17,18
