Step-by-step explanation:
consider first number x
second consecutive multiple of 7=x + 7
third consecutive multiple of 7 = x + 14
according according to the question,
x+(x+7)+(x+14)=777
x + x + 7+ x + 14 =777
3x+21=777
3 x = 777 - 21
3x =756
dividing both sides by 3
3x/3 = 756/3
x= 252
first number x=252
second number x + 8 = 252+8=260
third number x + 16 = 252+16=268
I hope its helps you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
