Question

The sum of three consecutive multiples of 5 is 765.Find all the multiples​

Answer 1

Answer:

SUM OF THREE CONSECUTIVE MULTIPLES OF 5 IS 765....

LET THE FIRST CONSECUTIVE MULTIPLE OF 5 BE X

THE SECOND CONSECUTIVE MULTIPLE OF 5 BE X+5

THE THIRD CONSECUTIVE MULTIPLE OF 5 BE X+10

X+X+5+X+10=765

3X+15=765

3X=765-15

3X=750

X=750/3

X=250

FIRST NUMBER=X=250

SECOND NUMBER=X+5=250+5=255

THIRD NUMBER=X+10=250+10=260

THEREFORE 250,255,260 ARE THE CONSECUTIVE MULTIPLES OF 5 WHOSE SUM IS 765
