Answer 1

Answer:

$It \: is \: not \: possible \: that \: sum \: of \\three\: natural \: numbers \: is \: 16$

Step-by-step explanation:

$Let \: x , (x+1)\:and \: (x+2) \:three \\ consecutive\: numbers$

/* According to the problem given,

$Sum = 16$

$\implies x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 16$

$\implies 3x + 3 = 16$

$\implies 3x = 16 - 3$

$\implies x = \frac{13}{3} \\( It \: is \: not \: a \: natural \: number )$

Therefore.,

$It \: is \: not \: possible \: that \: sum \: of \\three\: natural \: numbers \: is \: 16$
